Welcome back to RBR! Today we’re driving the most powerful two-door 911 Porsche has ever made: the latest 911 Turbo S, now with 711PS, 800Nm, twin electric turbochargers, a new 3.6-litre flat-six, a hybrid motor integrated into the PDK gearbox, and the kind of performance figures that make even modern hypercars feel nervous. This is not hybrid for saving the world. This is hybrid for conquering it! The new #TurboS takes the T-Hybrid idea from the 992.2 Carrera GTS and pushes it to the extreme. The engine alone now makes 640PS and 760Nm, before the electric motor adds even more directly into the drivetrain. Add in two F1-inspired eTurbos, a 400V electrical system, strengthened hybrid PDK, active aerodynamics, new chassis hardware, electro-hydraulic anti-roll control and the largest PCCB brakes ever fitted to a two-door Porsche, and the result is one of the most technically advanced 911s ever made. But before we drive it, we go back to where the 911 Turbo legend began. From the original 930 “Widowmaker”, with rear-wheel drive, no stability systems, huge lag and a reputation for biting back, through the 964 Turbo S, the 993 Turbo with all-wheel drive and twin turbos, the 996 Cabriolet and ceramic brakes, the 997 with VTG turbos and PDK, the 991 with rear-axle steering and active aero, and finally the 992.1 Turbo S — a car I owned myself — we trace how the Turbo evolved from a dangerous animal into the ultimate daily supercar. And now, with this 992.2, Porsche has taken that formula into a new era. In today’s RBR review, we’ll cover: - The full origin story of the Porsche 911 Turbo and Turbo S - 930 Turbo & Concept, 964 Turbo, 993 Turbo, 996 Turbo, 997 Turbo, 991 Turbo - The new 3.6-litre engine - Double power T-Hybrid set up - The PDK-integrated electric motor - New ehPDCC electro-hydraulic anti-roll system - Turbo S design - VS GTS and the previous car - Interior, rear seats, practicality and daily usability - Pricing buying - My own ideal Turbo S spec codes - Future rumours including Turbo Touring, GT3 RS facelift and next GT2 RS - Full first drive impressions on road This car now sits in a strange but fascinating place. EVs and hypercars have changed the performance landscape completely, and the Turbo S no longer has the shock factor it once had simply by being fast. So Porsche has gone further: sharper, more technical, more responsive, more extreme — but still with the daily usability that made the Turbo S such a unique proposition. The question is whether that extra weight and hybrid complexity have improved the legend, or whether Porsche has taken the 911 Turbo too far. Because on paper, this is no longer just a fast 911. This is a 711PS hybrid AWD missile that can seat four, carry luggage, work all year round, and still put down numbers that would have embarrassed hypercars not long ago. So is the new 992.2 Porsche 911 Turbo S still the ultimate daily supercar? Or has Porsche created something even more serious? Let’s find out.
