What is the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T?
The first Porsche 911 T was introduced in 1968. And since 2017, the 911 Carrera T has been part of the 911 model range. But what is the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T, and how it differs from the Carrera? Let’s find out!
What is the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera T?
If you are wondering, the letter T stands for Touring. Positioned between the 911 Carrera and the 911 Carrera S, the 911 Carrera T is about concentrating on the essentials. With the focus on agility, lightweight construction and an emotive soundscape, this is the ideal Carrera for purists looking for ultimate driving pleasure.
With its lightweight windows, reduced insulation and six-speed manual transmission, the lightest configuration of the new 911 Carrera T, with full bucket seats, weighs just 1,478 kilograms. Equipped like that, the car is more than 40 kg lighter than the current 911 Carrera. For the first time, the 911 Carrera T is also available as a cabriolet.
Manual Transmission
The 911 Carrera T is driven by the 3.0-litre six-cylinder twin-turbo boxer engine of the 911 Carrera. It delivers 290 kW (394 PS) and develops torque of up to 450 Nm. A standard six-speed manual transmission transfers the drive power to the rear axle. When shifting down, an intermediate throttle function (auto-blip) can be selected to automatically and specifically compensate speed differences between the engine and the gearbox.
With the standard Sport Chrono Package, the Carrera T Coupe can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds. Top speed is 295 km/h. In line with its increased power compared to its predecessor, the Carrera has a bigger braking system with an all-round brake disc diameter of 350 millimetres and six-piston fixed callipers at the front. In combination with the reduced interior insulation and the auto-blip function, the standard sports exhaust system makes for a particularly emotive soundscape.
Sport Suspension
For the first time Porsche is equipping the model with rear-axle steering as standard in combination with a more direct steering ratio on the front axle, thus significantly optimising handling. Lateral acceleration is generated faster and the steering responds more directly, while stability is simultaneously increased. The tuning of the rear-axle steering was developed specifically for the 911 Carrera T.
The PASM adaptive sports suspension, which is lowered by 10 mm, is standard and has been given model-specific, sporty tuning to make the Carrera T even better, and even more agile, to drive. The standard rear-axle steering and an aerodynamic balance optimised exclusively for the 911 Carrera T have enabled the anti-roll bars on the front and rear axles to be tuned for neutral handling. The 911 Carrera T has 20/21-inch Carrera S light alloy wheels. The front tyres are 245/35 ZR20 and the rears are 305/30 ZR21.
