The new Porsche 911 Carrera T brings more sound, less weight and an increase in engagement to the entry-level 992 -
upwards, with Porsche Torque Vectoring and a mechanical locking differential also standard. Porsche quotes a 4.5sec 0-62mph sprint and a 181mph top speed, marginally behind the figures for the ordinary PDK-equipped Carrera.
Unique to the Carrera T are elements such as lightweight glass and a lightweight battery, with a reduction in sound insulation and the removal of the rear seats all designed to reduce its kerb weight. The result is a 35kg drop in weight over the standard PDK-equipped Carrera, bringing the total to 1470kg. A byproduct of these weight savings is an increase in interior sound, something that Porsche has capitalised on with the inclusion of a standard Sports exhaust system.
Design tweaks are subtle, with staggered Titanium Grey 20 and 21-inch Carrera S wheels, Agate Grey exterior mirrors, decals and a windscreen tint strip and gloss black exhaust tips the only notable changes. Buyers can opt for solid, metallic and ‘special’ colours from the standard colour palette, with the Paint to Sample programme open to some lucky buyers.
Inside, the GT sports steering wheel and Sports Seats Plus are standard, but lightweight full buckets, extended leather, contrasting interior trim and more can be optioned at a cost. The 992 Porsche 911 Carrera T is available to order now, priced from £98,500.
