Here's The Next Generation Porsche 911 Making Throaty Noises During Winter Testing
Good news, Porsche fans: we’re getting an early look at the next-generation, ‘992’ 911 thanks to fresh testing footage. Captured undergoing winter trials in northern Sweden, the prototype you see here is lightly disguised and looks to also be wearing a few 991.2 body panels. We can’t make too many predictions about the looks just yet, it’s fairly safe to assume the designers will have taken a typically Porsche evolution approach to the styling. What is definitely new though is the Mission E concept-inspired rear end, complete with one massive - and rather tasty - LED light bar. We like.
The next-gen 911 is expected to be the first version of Stuttgart’s famous rear-engined sports car to feature the option of a hybrid powertrain, while the regular Carrera and Carrera S models will almost certainly be packing the twin-turbo flat-six which made its debut in the 991.2.
It should arrive late in 2018 for the 2019 model year.
