THE 2025 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 4 GTS T-HYBRID BLENDS ELECTRIFIED PERFORMANCE WITH SUPERCAR SPEED

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS T-Hybrid marks a significant evolution for the iconic sports car, introducing its first-ever electrified powertrain. The reviewer highlights the seamless integration of the 3.6L flat-six engine with an electric motor, delivering a potent 532 horsepower and astonishing acceleration, achieving 0-60 mph in as little as 2.7 seconds. While the hybrid system adds approximately 100 lbs, Porsche's engineering prowess keeps the weight gain in check, maintaining the 911's renowned agility and handling. The reviewer praises the responsive steering, minimal body lean in Sport Plus, and the overall sublime driving experience, noting it feels akin to a Turbo S model. Positives include the enhanced engine sound, the smooth power delivery, and the practical benefit of the AC remaining operational when the engine shuts off in normal mode. However, criticisms are leveled at the drab interior color scheme of the test car, the optional ventilated seats being a costly extra, and the significant price increase for the model year, with the tested car reaching nearly $200,000. The reviewer also notes the absence of a manual transmission option for this hybrid variant, which is only available on the base 911 T.
