If you’re a Porsche fan like me, you probably felt a jolt of excitement when you heard the words “Turbo S” and “hybrid” in the same sentence. It’s finally happening. Porsche has confirmed the 992.2-generation Porsche 911 Turbo S Hybrid is coming and it’s the most powerful 911 ever built.

I’ve followed the 911 for years and this feels like one of those moments that changes a legend without erasing its soul. Porsche is calling this a “new high-end derivative” and from what we know it’s more than just an eco-friendly upgrade. It’s a performance revolution.

No Compromises

Porsche isn’t just slapping on batteries for the sake of it. The hybrid system, expected to be a more aggressive version of the T-Hybrid from the Carrera GTS, has an electric motor in the transmission for instant torque and electrically spun turbos to eliminate lag. Imagine flooring it and feeling every bit of that boost without the wait.

We could see a power figure north of 700 horsepower. Even crazier, Porsche has kept the added weight minimal. In the GTS hybrid it was just 103 pounds more. So the legendary 911 agility isn’t going anywhere.

Subtle but Meaningful Changes

The 911 Turbo S Hybrid will still look like a 911, just sharper. Think refreshed lighting, sleeker aero tweaks and probably some model specific styling to hint at the hybrid beast beneath the skin. Inside a fully digital dash is expected to carry forward Porsche’s new-age cockpit feel.
