2012 porsche 911

It will not look very different, but the next generation of the iconic rear-engine sports car will be lighter, meaner, cleaner, easier on gas, and more agile. Inevitably, the new 911s cost more too.







What we know about 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera



Next Generation Porsche 911 Carrera Porsche is already in trials, but it is not expected in Europe until the end of 2011 and the United States until early 2012. Why the apparent rush? As much as we can tell, Porsche will be ready for the limits of CO2 emissions much more severe starting ramp in 2011 for all major domestic markets in Germany and other EU countries. And, of course, it never hurts to have something new to talk.



Before speaking, but some guidance is in order. The current 911-line, new in the United States by 2005 and also known as the 997 series, won a series of changes to the 2009 Carrera rear wheel drive and all wheel drive Carrera 4 cups all-glass roof Targa coupes, cabriolets and convertibles. Among them: recasting "flat-6" engine with direct fuel injection and more power, the new Porsche PDK 7-speed automated manual transmission option to replace a conventional automatic lights, LED rear lights and traffic and revised interior with improved ergonomics and better touch screen navigation. A day at the same high performance 911 GT3 reaches dealerships in spring 2009. remaining 997 variants, the GT2 and Turbo Hot, in 2010.



The 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera is the code name 991, which means another complete redesign of the iconic rear-engined sports car. But it is typical of Porsche will be difficult to detect without a 997 parked nearby. Buyers expect classic style 911, and Porsche is not about to risk selling a lot playing with him. However, reports of the magazine Auto Britain and Germany, Auto Bild 991 shows the proportions of the 997 slightly modified because the wheelbase is said to extend about 4 inches while overall length has not changed. These sources also expect wider taxiway, so the new 911 will be the beam front and rear. To add to the hard aspect is a new front fascia with a center of the grill of three major elements.



Several engine changes also mark the 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera. Anchoring one end is a revised base model S pack a reduced version of the 3.4-liter horizontally opposed persistent 6-cylinder engine. Despite the smaller engine would have been 3 .4 350 horsepower, up five from the 3.6-liter Carrera current base unit. Then comes a new Carrera RS, replace today's S-model. It uses the same 3.8-liter engine, but with 15 extra horsepower from 2009 to a nice piece, round, 400th Output torque slip a little, down from eight to 280 lb.-ft. for the 3.4 15 and 295 lb.-ft. for the 3.8. However, a decrease of weight - at least 130 books in our account - should provide slightly better acceleration times, plus better fuel economy and CO2 emissions. While it is too early for exact figures, sources of suspicion RS models will scale of 0 to 60 km / h in about four seconds.







Transmissions will again consist of a standard 6-speed manual and optional PDK (initial reference a German term for "double clutch.")



The reduction of the expected mass for the 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera comes from the wider use of carbon fiber, plastics, composites and other lightweight materials, as a result of lessons learned to the mid-engine V10 Carrera GT supercar . How these things will be used, and where, remains to be seen, however.

2012 Porsche Panamera

The 2012 Porsche Panamera gains a pair of new models on opposite ends of the spectrum: the S Hybrid and the 550-horsepower Turbo S.



One thing that Porsche is not worried, it offers a multitude of choices. There are only 20 911 different variations, and each had Porsche may be hundreds of choices. 2012 Porsche Panamera to add to his own car horn o'plenty with some new models, the Panamera S oriented fuel hybrid and the flagship Turbo S.







S Hybrid, as its name suggests, is equipped with a gasoline-electric hybrid. Developed in collaboration with parent company Volkswagen, the drivetrain uses an electric motor sandwiched between an Audi V6 original compressor and an eight-speed automatic. The result is a combined output of 375 hp and 427 lb-ft of torque, or the same output as the S. V8 Panamera



Porsche says S Hybrid goes from zero to 60 km / h in 5.7 seconds, a time which is a bit slower than the V8 because of the increased emphasis hybrid. With estimates of 20 mpg city and 24 mpg highway, the Panamera Hybrid is still very far from the Prius territory, but it becomes four mpg better fuel economy in town that the Panamera S and 2 mpg better in town than the Panamera V6 base. Highway fuel economy is worse than the S and the same as the V6.







A Porsche hybrid species always seem strange, even in the discussion, and weird Panamera. Therefore, the second new member of the family seems to be more appropriate. The high-end Porsche Panamera Turbo S has a more powerful twin-turbo V8 Turbo model now. With 550 hp and 553 lb.-ft. of torque coupled to the automated manual transmission Porsche Turbo S should hit 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, absolutely atrocious. It's just a bit slower than a 911 Turbo.







The other five variants are expected to transfer Panamera unchanged for 2012, and we want more information about them in the coming months. Return in the fall of 2011 for more details and advice on buying Porsche Panamera 2012.



+ PLUS :

Impressive cornering ability; engine choices from willing to thrilling; comfortable ride; beautiful cabin quality.



-MINUS :

Only four seats; pricey options; Hybrid model is hardly eco-friendly.
