Sounds like H2 2024 for the ICE 911 introduction (base, S) & then hybridized (GTS, Turbo, Turbos S) intro in a couple of months after that.
No word on manual availability. Seems like that’s going to be a big q for me, I wonder if manual is going to start being an exclusive thing.
Also 50k 911’s delivered in 2023. Wow! I think that’s a record for sure.
i loved every porsche i owned but the 992 is a special one. once hybrid comes around while it might be faster, more efficient, etc there is something about ICE that hybrid will never have. but maybe i can finally get a hybrid GT3 given the demand may be less then what it is now!
I'd like to remind everyone in here that hybrids still have ICE. Some of you are talking like they're making the 911 an EV in 6 months.
i think the concern connection is that hybrids can’t be set up with a manual transmission. It’s not hybrid that is a bummer. It’s the lack or loss of manual transmission.

Not true. Other manufacturers have provided MT's on Hybrids. Honda comes to mind at the moment, but I don't think they were/are unique.

This has been discussed many times. The Honda CRZ was 130hp and not a sports car. The manual hybrids to date have been purely efficiency-first adaptations. CRZ is the only manual hybrid ever sold in US.
The current manual is at its torque limit with non-hybrid 3.0L motors and even required the Sport Classic to be detuned for lower torque. Current PDK was developed to accommodate hybridization, manual is not compatible (no room for hybrid motor in drive train).
With low take rate, Porsche will not develop a new manual transmission.
Zero hybrid test mules spotted with manual.
Chances are slim to none.
Manuals should carry over into 992.2 with non-hybrids. No reason to believe they won’t.
