Like its predecessors, it will sound a bit like a vacuum cleaner, but should offer performance to rival some of the most impressive mid-engined supercars on the market.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/porsche\/\">Porsche<\/a> has done such a fine job of perfecting the 911 Turbo family in recent years that it could have simply slapped on a pair of new bumpers on the 992.2 and called it a day. However, that\u2019s not the way it operates. Instead, the facelifted Turbo S will feel more like an all-new generation model thanks to the adoption of a hybrid powertrain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/03\/2026-porsche-911-turbo-s-spied-undisguised-could-sport-nearly-700-hp\/\">2026 Porsche 911 Turbo S Caught Undisguised, Could Pack Nearly 700 Hybrid Horses<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although there\u2019s no way of seeing what\u2019s going on under the skin of this prototype, the fact that it sports a yellow circular sticker on the rear window denotes it as being a hybrid. That may not be welcomed by some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/porsche-911\/\">911<\/a> purists, but it\u2019s good news for those eager to see the Turbo S become an even more insane performance weapon.<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic\"><\/div>\n<p>The existing model uses a 3.7-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six delivering 640 hp and 590 lb-ft (799 Nm) in flagship Turbo S guise. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2024\/05\/porsche-reveals-why-it-had-to-introduce-a-hybrid-911-plus-other-surprises\/\">Like the new 911 GTS<\/a>, the 992.2 Turbo S\u2019s transition to hybrid power will see a small electric motor integrated within the eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. This motor adds 54 hp and 110 lb-ft to the GTS, and similar gains can be expected for the Turbo S. That means the relatively unassuming-looking 911 could pack upwards of 700 hp, out-muscling even the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/mclaren-artura\/\">McLaren Artura<\/a> and Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray.<\/p>\n<p>The engineer behind the wheel of this prototype was seen putting all that new power to the test. At one stage, they can be seen performing an epic four-wheeled drift around one of the Nordschleife\u2019s right-hand corners, while taking other corners at truly staggering speeds. On a circuit, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/03\/modded-porsche-911-turbo-wrecked-during-drag-racing-in-the-netherlands\/\">the Turbo S<\/a> might not match the track-focused GT3, but on the road, it\u2019ll easily outperform any of Porsche\u2019s current GT models.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<div id=\"bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"> <\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;bb7964e9-07de-4b06-a83e-ead35079d53c&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;9b1169d9-7a89-4971-a77f-1397f7588751&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Several updates have been made to the exterior of the 992.2-generation model.
