2026 PORSCHE 911 TURBO S | GODZILLA PERFORMANCE AND PRICE

EV Channels Review

The 2026 Porsche 911 Turbo S (992.2 generation) represents a significant evolution, embracing hybridization for enhanced performance. The reviewer highlights its blistering acceleration, achieving 0-60 mph in the low twos and mid-10s in the quarter-mile, thanks to its 701 hp hybrid powertrain featuring e-turbos. The chassis dynamics are praised for their natural feel and seamless integration of complex electromechanical systems, allowing for impressive track performance without the driver needing to manage battery levels. However, the review points out several drawbacks. The exhaust note is considered uninspired compared to rivals, and the car's clinical proficiency lacks the dramatic flair of competitors. The most significant concern is the steep price increase over the previous generation, pushing the car into a territory where rivals may offer a more special experience for the money. Furthermore, the reviewer suggests the regular 911 GTS offers a nearly identical driving experience for substantially less cost, making it a compelling alternative unless budget is no object.
