Model Preview
The 2024 Porsche 911 receives updates to its infotainment system but is otherwise unchanged. The 911 now comes with wireless Android Auto compatibility and a built-in app for the Spotify streaming audio service.
The 911 continues in coupe, convertible, and half-roof Targa body styles. Although it looks like a classic two-seater, the 911 has two child-size rear seats. Buyers have five trims to pick, each with its own engine.
The base Carrera carries a twin-turbo 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine with 379 horsepower. The Carrera S receives a 443-hp version of the 3.0-liter. Moving up to the Turbo trim brings a 3.8-liter twin-turbo six-cylinder that makes 572 horsepower. A high-output 3.8-liter with 640 hp is reserved for the Turbo S.
For buyers who want speed without turbocharging, Porsche offers the coupe-only GT3 with a normally aspired 4.0-liter six-cylinder that lays down 502 hp.
All-wheel is standard on Turbo coupe and convertible models — and all Targa models. AWD remains optional on the Carrera trims. The GT3 comes with rear-wheel drive only. Porsche's seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission is standard on all models. The 3.0-liter engine only can be paired with a seven-speed manual transmission at no cost.
Every 911 comes with a 10.9-touch screen and navigation. From there, buyers can choose from a huge array of interior finishes, seat types, and premium sound systems. It's the same way with driver assistance technology. Only automatic emergency braking and parking sensors are standard. Everything else is optional, including a sophisticated self-parking system controlled by the owner's smartphone.
For 2024, the popular Sport Chrono Package includes additional drive modes, launch control, active driveline mounts, an analog clock with a stopwatch, and a three-year subscription to Porsche's performance app. The Premium Package again equips the 911 with a Bose sound system, ventilated front seats, blind-spot monitoring, power-folding mirrors, animated exterior lighting, and ambient interior lighting.
