New Porsche 911 GT3

On February 16, Porsche will present its new 992 Series car. It is a Porsche 911 GT3 model.

The new model will have a 4.0-liter straight-six engine with rear-wheel drive as well as the 911 Speedster model, which completed production of the 911 series. The engine will deliver 510 hp at 9,000 rpm. It will accelerate from 0-60 mph in less than 4 seconds. Customers can choose between a manual and an automatic seven-speed transmission (PDK). A six-speed manual transmission for the regular GT3 and GT3 Touring will also be available.

The car got a new braking system with 408 mm front discs and 20 and 21-inch wheels. A few carbon accessories, as well as a large rear spoiler, separate this car from the rest of the 992 Series.

Porsche engineers have focused most of their efforts on strict emissions regulations. The rest of the effort is focused on improving the GT3 model, which has been achieved by improving aerodynamics. The result is a 50 percent increase in downforce without affecting drag.

Porsche Macan

No compromise. Always adventure, life, excitement and greater acceleration. A combination of sporty design and everyday practicality. Compact SUV. Porsche Macan.

By its looks, the Macan is a sports car. A powerful rear end, a new strip of taillights and four-point brake lights emphasize its power. The roof line tilts at the rear like a coupe, creating the contour of a sports car with high aerodynamic quality.

The leather-wrapped front sports seats make you feel like you’re sitting high above the road, but you’re still closely connected to it. The three-dimensional layout of the controls gives the interior the character of a cockpit. There’s also a new 10.9˝ touchscreen infotainment system. The distance between the steering wheel and the PDK (Porsche Doppelkupplung) is extremely short, which is characteristic of sports cars. The ignition is on the left which is typical of a Porsche. There is standard three-zone automatic climate control, BOSE® surround sound system and Burmester® state-of-the-art surround sound system.

The Porsche Macan has an active all-wheel drive system Porsche Traction Management (PTM). An optional sports exhaust system makes Porsche’s sound even more powerful.

The base model of the Macan comes with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine that delivers 248 hp, while the high-performance Macan comes with a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 engine that delivers 348 hp and 354 lb-ft (480 Nm) of torque. Both engines are paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Accelerates from 0-60 mph in 5.1 seconds or 4.9 seconds using the Sport Chrono package with a top speed of 157 mph.

In 1996, Porsche began production of the first Boxster 986. 25 years later, Porsche pays tribute to its sports car with a special model, the Boxster 25.

The exterior of the car is inspired by the 996-generation 911, which was first unveiled at the 1993 Detroit Auto Show.

Like the first Boxster, the limited model has a copper trim on the front and side air intakes, badging, and 20 inch wheels. The fuel cap has an aluminum look with the Porsche script on it. The car also got high-gloss exhaust pipe ends and a black windshield frame as well as a Boxster 25 badge at the rear. The car comes in GT Silver, Jet Black, and Carrera White color choices.

Inside are red Bordeaux leather seats as well as a red fabric convertible top. You can also choose black leather if you are not a fan of red.

All models are powered by a 6-cylinder 4.0-liter engine that develops 395 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a six-speed manual transmission as standard. Also, a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission is available. The Boxster 25 accelerates from 0 – 60 mph in 3.8 seconds with a top speed of 182 mph.

All models will be equipped with technology such as Porsche LED lights, heated steering wheel and parking sensors.

Porsche will produce only 1,250 units of the Boxster 25.
