2026 Porsche 911 Turbo Touring S

The engine in a Turbo is truly remarkable, effortlessly revving to 9,000rpm with effortless ease while emitting an audible “thunderous sound”. Additionally, its gearbox allows for precise downshifts and rapid upshifts unlike most cars can offer.

Porsche is also developing a hybrid system to boost power to more than 520 horsepower, helping bridge any performance gaps between its GTS and Turbo models.

Powertrain

The Porsche 911 has seen numerous iterations over its 61-year history, but for 2026 they’ve taken an innovative step with their inaugural hybrid powertrain. The Turbo Touring’s hybrid system combines a plug-in electric motor with its carryover 3.6-liter twin-turbo flat six engine to generate approximately 475 horsepower; instantly adding boost pressure for low rpm acceleration while helping reduce turbo lag and recovering energy during braking.

Porsche says their lithium iron phosphate battery powers and stores electricity for electric assist, increasing efficiency while decreasing emissions. Furthermore, this feature can be activated at any time to take advantage of available regenerative braking, further decreasing fuel consumption and CO2 output.

With turbos spinning at relatively low rpms, the car can operate on all-electric power for short periods without compromising performance – this feature is particularly helpful when parking or traversing city streets. An electric motor controlled by a computer adjusts engine rpm for maximum efficiency; another manages power split between front and rear axles to maximize handling comfort and handling capacity.

Its performance is even more remarkable considering its 3,056-pound curb weight makes it responsive and manageable, and with an astounding zero-to-60-mph time of just 2.6 seconds it stands as one of the fastest 911s currently on sale.

Retuned PASM Sport Suspension delivers a more neutral and stable ride with increased agility, and with optional Active Roll Stabilization you can avoid the type of body movement commonly associated with cars in this class.

Autonomous Mobility System is another standard feature. It helps maintain a set speed on highways while monitoring vehicles ahead of you, and will adjust your Turbo’s speed accordingly if they accelerate or decelerate suddenly. Furthermore, should they exit their lane, this feature can accelerate or apply brakes as necessary to prevent too close of an approach from following too closely behind.

Safety

The 2026 Porsche 911 turbo touring s stands out from its competition by offering amazing performance while remaining comfortable for everyday functionality, setting itself apart. From racetrack performance to daily commute comfort, every detail has been optimized and refined for an optimal driving experience – whether on or off track. Driver-centric console design, sports car ergonomics and GT sport steering wheel with PDK gearshift paddles in Dark Silver help maximize this driving experience; stylish ambient lighting and leather interiors in black Race-Tex complete this sleek sports look.

Adaptive Cruise Control automatically regulates your vehicle’s speed in relation to that of the car in front of you, even in traffic jams or slowdowns, allowing you to relax and enjoy the ride more comfortably. Furthermore, its manual mode enables full control if desired.

The standard reversing camera provides precise reverse parking and maneuvering capabilities, with dynamic guidelines on the PCM screen showing your intended path, making it easier to steer your Porsche 911 turbo sedan around obstacles or other vehicles. ParkAssist, an optional safety feature, further eases parking your vehicle by measuring parking spaces, alerting you of available spaces, and helping with both steering and reversing maneuvers.

Cross-Drilled Ceramic Brake Discs can help increase the stopping power of your Porsche 911 turbo touring, as they’re up to 50 percent lighter than cast-iron versions and provide superior braking performance.

Lane Change Assist uses radar sensors to monitor the areas behind and near your vehicle as well as your blind spots, providing early warning if an approaching vehicle approaches rapidly from behind or is within your blind spots, potentially rendering changing lanes dangerous. When this occurs, an indicator will appear in your exterior mirrors warning of this risk – Turn Assist provides additional assistance with maneuvering through curves.

The 2026 Porsche 911 turbo touring s is equipped with the Safety Assist Plus package as standard, providing features like automatic headlight activation and dimming, side impact protection, engine immobilizer, rollover sensor and much more. Furthermore, an airbag protects both driver and front passenger as well as anti-lock braking and electronic stability control are provided for.

Technology

The latest Porsche 911 Turbo offers many innovations and assistance systems. One such innovation is its front axle lift system, which raises it by 40 mm (1.5 inches). At speeds up to 21 miles per hour this allows curbs, ramps, or parking garage entrances to be easily navigated without requiring the sports car driver to manually engage a lifting mechanism.

The 10.9-inch touchscreen of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) serves as an intuitive control center for audio, navigation and communication functions of a vehicle. With its clear design and user-friendly operation, accessing any function within an easy reach of its home screen. In addition, intelligent functions like Route Monitor provide quick and effortless route planning solutions on PCM displays in real time.

Porsche Wet Mode

Utilising sensors located within the front wheel housing, this intelligent system recognizes swirled-up water spray and analyzes road conditions. If wet conditions are detected, PSM and PTM’s response behavior are automatically pre-conditioned; additionally, drivers are informed and may manually switch into Wet Mode as desired.

Active safety features help the vehicle stay on course when driving at high speeds. In doing so, data collected by front cameras and radar sensors are used to constantly monitor the area in front of your 911 Turbo and warn if another vehicle approaches too closely or that you are following too closely – warning you accordingly before either reducing engine power or applying brakes as appropriate.

As soon as the LED headlights have been fitted to your Porsche 911 Turbo, they ensure you can always see clearly what is occurring on and around the road. Equipped with High Beam Assist and dynamic cornering lights, as well as speedsensitive headlight range control that deactivates segments of permanent main beam that are no longer necessary at current road speeds for increased near-field, lateral, and far-field illumination.

Style

The 2026 update for the Porsche 911 Turbo Touring will bring advanced technology to its sleek exterior design, with new designs for its front fascia and LED headlights as well as an integrated turn signal that doesn’t rest on its front fender as seen currently.

The front of this car will boast wider arches, a more prominent grille and lower roofline than previous models. Furthermore, its rear fenders have also been made wider for a powerful appearance that’s instantly identifiable as a 911 Turbo Touring model. Furthermore, this wider design helps improve airflow, cooling capabilities as well as aerodynamic performance of this sports car.

Moveable rear spoilers, wide front splitters, and hidden vents all increase downforce – critical for keeping the car stable at high speeds. Furthermore, the 2026 911 Turbo Touring will come equipped with a Sport Chrono Package featuring dynamic driving modes to boost its performance and agility; its Sport mode delivers sharper steering response and faster accelerator response as well as more aggressive suspension settings than usual – this system also includes launch control functionality to facilitate an ideal standing start.

The updated 911 interior will offer an intuitive infotainment system featuring a large 10.9-inch central touchscreen and configurable digital instrument cluster. There will also be a head-up display to help drivers stay aware of important information while staying focused on driving safely, along with an intelligent assistant capable of navigation, parking and traffic assistance as well as helping avoid collisions between vehicles or pedestrians by alerting you of potential obstacles.

Safety-wise, the new 911 will offer standard features like front and side curtain airbags, electronic stability control, traction control, and anti-lock brakes. In addition, Porsche InnoDrive, an anticipatory speed control system using video sensors to identify speed restrictions along the road ahead, will adjust your vehicle’s speed accordingly so that it never exceeds the limit.
