Porsche 911 992.2 Carrera GTS T-Hybrid Test Drive Report｜How Good Is the Latest Hybrid?

The Reality of the New-Generation T-Hybrid System The T-Hybrid system equipped in the 992.2 Carrera GTS is Porsche’s newly developed hybrid technology. Unlike a plug-in hybrid, it cannot be charged externally. The core of this system lies in a compact lithium-ion battery and a motor integrated within the PDK transmission that provides electric assist. The engine features a newly developed 3.6-liter electric single turbo, marking a significant shift from the traditional twin-turbo setup. At low...

Porsche 911 GT3RS (991.2) Test Drive Review: The Ultimate Street Racer

First Impressions of the 991 GT3RS There’s one thing about the 991 GT3RS that has stuck with me. It takes me back to when the early 991 GT3RS was first released, and Matsutoya-san drove it on Car Graphic TV. Known for his calm and measured reviews, Matsutoya-san was grinning from ear to ear—an expression rarely seen in recent years. That moment remains vivid in my memory. “What a fantastic suspension!” His words and smile perfectly...

What Is the 991.1 Early Black Edition? The Porsche 911 Carrera 991.1 Early Black Edition was introduced as the final model of the 991.1 generation.

Its core specs include a 3.4-liter flat-six engine producing 350 hp and 390 Nm of torque. Buyers could choose between a 7-speed manual or a...

Recently, I’ve been driving the Porsche Cayenne GTS Coupe. This is the 9YA (pre-facelift) Cayenne, the last generation before the full digital instrument cluster, featuring an analog tachometer. It sports a Crayon exterior color paired with the GTS Interior Package’s Alcantara and leather sport seats. The sleek coupe body is undeniably sporty and beautiful. However, once behind the wheel, this GTS reveals some unexpected traits. I want to share candid insights about the V8 engine’s...

A Luxurious Setup Worth 5 Million Yen in Options The 992 early-model 911 Turbo I test drove was truly loaded with options. With nearly 5 million yen worth of extras, the interior and exterior were elegantly coordinated in Crayon and Slate Grey. Features like the sunroof, sports exhaust, 21-inch 911 Turbo Exclusive Design wheels, Matrix LED black headlights, and Exclusive Design taillights gave it an unmistakably upscale presence. Inside, the 18-way adaptive sports seats with...

Evolved Carrera T – Changes in Exterior and Interior I had the opportunity to test drive the 992.2 Porsche 911 Carrera T, the later model of the 992 series. Since I also drove the earlier 992.1 Carrera T, I can share my impressions while comparing the two. Starting with the exterior, at first glance, there’s hardly any difference between the earlier and later models. Even as someone well-versed in Porsche, it’s difficult to tell them...

First Impressions of the 992 Late Model – Preserving the Crisp Driving Feel My spouse and I had the opportunity to drive the latest 992 late-model Porsche 911 Carrera together. The first thing that caught our attention was the quietness at idle after starting the engine. The moment the engine fired up, it felt surprisingly smooth with less vibration than expected, giving a very calm impression. Taking it out for a short drive around town,...

The other day, my wife and I had the opportunity to test drive the new Macan EV (the base Macan model). Having driven various Porsche models over the years, I was very curious about where this EV version of the Macan would fit in the lineup. Once behind the wheel, I was surprised by its level of refinement, which exceeded my expectations. In this report, I’ll dive into the driving experience and features of the...

Porsche’s Grade Strategy: Distinct Personalities for Each Model This time, I’d like to share my impressions of the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT’s position within the Porsche lineup, based on my experience since delivery. First of all, Porsche is known for offering a wide variety of grades within each model. For example, the 911 lineup ranges from the base Carrera to Carrera S, Carrera GTS, Turbo, Turbo S, GT3, GT3 RS, and GT2 RS, covering a...
