Hardly a base model, the starter 992-generation car is a performance powerhouse with Porsche's future in mind.
The 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera, the latest 992 generation of the iconic German sports machine, is a driver's delight that excels as a refined performance car even in its entry level configuration. Read the full story here.
The starter 992 Porsche 911 is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six, which produces 379 horsepower and 331 lb-ft of torque.
The latest 911 comes standard with an eight-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission, although Porsche promises a seven-speed manual version is coming soon.
All 992-generation Carreras feature the 911's wider bodywork, previously reserved for all-wheel-drive and GTS models, as well as wider front and rear wheel tracks.
Also aiding the 992's grip levels are larger diameter rear tires with larger contact patches.
The previous 991.2-generation 911 Carrera with the PDK transmission we test reached 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. We're not sure that the new car will be any quicker.
Pricing for the 2020 911 coupe starts at $98,750, and opting for the convertible model will cost you at least $111,550.
As with many new cars today, the 992's tailpipes are not physically connected to the exhaust-finishing outlets, a design that Porsche says helps to lessen repair costs for rear-end impacts.
Porsche says the 992-gen Carrera, at about 3400 pounds, weighs around 100 pounds more than the previous 991.2 version.
While Porsche kept with tradition and maintained the 911's five-gauge layout with the 992, including the central tachometer, there now are a pair of multifunction display screens in the instrument cluster.
Even in its entry level form, the latest 911 Carrera is capable of carrying massive speed on the road with exceptional levels responsiveness and refinement.
