Great info, however, I wonder if MHEV is included in the HEV category.

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.

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.

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.

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.
