2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S unveiled: Most powerful production 911 till date

The 2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S was unveiled at the IAA Mobility motor show in Munich, and the sports car, which sits at the top of the Porsche 911 model range, is the most powerful production 911 to date. Available as a coupe or cabriolet, the new 911 Turbo S gets an updated design with enhanced aerodynamics, a hybridised powertrain, and improved performance

2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S powertrain and performance

The new 911 Turbo S is powered by the T-Hybrid powertrain which debuted last year in the Carrera GTS. However, it has been improved for use in the new Turbo S. The Carrera GTS made use of a single electric exhaust gas turbocharger or eTurbo integrated in the T-Hybrid system, but the Turbo S makes use of two eTurbos, with the turbine and compressor specifically developed for this model. The engine is a 3.6-litre flat-six that produces 632bhp of power by itself, while the electric motor produces 70bhp. The 911 Turbo S is equipped with a 400V system, and the 1.9kWh high-voltage battery from the Carrera GTS is unchanged. The combined system output of the 911 Turbo S with the T-Hybrid powertrain is 701bhp, along with 800Nm of torque that is available from 2300rpm to 6000rpm.

This makes the new 911 Turbo S 60bhp more powerful than its predecessor, and the sports car accelerates from 0 to 100kmph in a claimed 2.5 seconds. 200kmph comes up in 8.4 seconds and the Turbo S has a claimed top speed of 322kmph. The new 911 Turbo S is quicker to lap the Nürburgring Nordschleife than its predecessor, with a lap time of 7:03.92 minutes – around 14 seconds quicker. This Porsche can be had either as a coupe or cabriolet, and the latter is only marginally slower in terms of its performance, with its 0 to 100kmph and 0 to 200kmph acceleration times being slower than the coupe by 0.1 second and 0.4 seconds, respectively. The 911 Turbo S comes with an 8-speed PDK transmission with an integrated electric motor, and the sports car gets all-wheel-drive.

2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S styling

At first glance, the new Turbo S does look like any other current-gen 911, but this model gets numerous contrasting elements that are finished in the colour Turbonite, which is reserved exclusively for the Turbo models. These include the Porsche emblems and the Turbo S lettering at the rear. The Turbo S also gets variant-specific inserts in the slats of the rear wing and the side window strips, along with a new range of centre-lock design for the wheels done up in Turbonite. As you move to the side, the giveaways of this being a Turbo are noticeable, with the visibly wider body and track, and the openings in the rear side section. A new titanium sports exhaust system is fitted as standard, and it comes with oval titanium tailpipe trims with a special structure available as an option.

The new 911 Turbo S also gets enhanced aerodynamics and cooling, contributing to which are the active, vertically-arranged cooling air flaps at the front and an active front diffuser. The Turbo S gets an adjustable front spoiler lip and an extendable and tilting rear wing, which is carried over from the earlier model. The drag coefficient of the new Turbo S coupe has been reduced by 10 per cent compared to its predecessor, and the active aero also improves braking performance in the wet, with the front diffusers closing to shield the front brake discs from excessive water spray.

2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S chassis, suspension and brakes

Thanks to the T-Hybrid powertrain and its high-voltage electrical and battery system, Porsche engineers have now equipped the 911 Turbo S with the electro-hydraulically controlled Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (ehPDCC) as standard – and what it does is reduce body roll during direction changes and improve agility when entering and exiting corners. The system works with cross-connected, active coupling rods, in which pressure is built up by oil volume flow, depending on the driving situation. These stabilisers generate support forces, keeping the sports car balanced and aiding its ride as well as the handling. The ehPDCC is also available with an optional lift system for the front axle, which will help you clear larger speed breakers, and the system now works faster thanks to its integration into the 400V system. The latest Turbo S also gets a new generation of tyres and with 10mm wider tyres fitted at the rear – measuring 325/30 ZR21 – while the size of the front tyres is unchanged, at 255/35 ZR20. The Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB) system which is standard on the 911 Turbo S, now gets new brake pads, along with larger rear brake discs at 410mm – a 20mm increase. 420mm brake discs are present at the front, and the new 911 Turbo S is equipped with the largest PCCB system that Porsche has installed in a two-door model.

2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S interior

Just like on the outside, the interior of the Turbo S is differentiated from the other 911 models with the use of Turbonite accents, which can be found in the door panels, the steering wheel and the dashboard. The seat belts and buttons in the centre console also make use of the Turbonite colour. The Turbo S coupe is available as a two-seater coupe as standard, but you can also spec it with the rear seats at no additional cost. The cabriolet on the other hand comes with a 2+2 configuration as standard. Coming to equipment, the 911 Turbo S is equipped with the Sport Chrono Package as standard and this includes the tyre temperature gauge, specifically-tuned PASM suspension, the PDCC electro-hydraulic roll support and the titanium sports exhaust system.

The 2025 Porsche 911 Turbo S was unveiled at the IAA Mobility motor show in Munich, and the sports car is likely to make its way to India following its debut in global markets. And with that sort of performance on offer, we simply cannot wait to get our paws on one!
