2025 PORSCHE 911 GTS REVIEW - HYBRID 911?!

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Porsche 911 GTS T-Hybrid marks a significant evolution for the iconic model, integrating hybrid technology for enhanced performance. Reviewers highlight its impressive 532 horsepower and 449 lb-ft of torque, delivered through a 3.6L 6-cylinder boxer engine coupled with an electric turbo and an 8-speed PDK transmission. While the absence of a manual option is noted, the hybrid system provides substantial torque fill, making it feel incredibly potent and fast, even drawing comparisons to the Turbo S. The vehicle was tested extensively at the Porsche Experience Center in Toronto, showcasing its exceptional handling on various track elements, including a Laguna Seca-inspired Corkscrew and a wet drift circle. The reviewers praised the car's planted feel, minimal body roll, and the engaging, albeit complex, driving dynamics on the slippery surfaces. The new styling, including the gills, is seen as a positive step, aligning it with the Turbo S. Despite the high price point of $227,045 CAD, the performance and the overall experience offered by the GTS T-Hybrid are considered compelling, especially for those seeking a blend of traditional 911 character with cutting-edge hybrid power.
