The most eye-catching product at the auto show – the new 911 Targa 4 GTS
In today’s era of new energy, the new 911 GTS is also powered by electricity, but electricity is only part of the performance enhancement. In the 911 GTS model, it does not participate in pure electric drive. The new 911 Carrera GTS model, which is also equipped with the T-Hybrid system, ran a lap time of 7 minutes 16.934 seconds on the Nürburgring North Circuit, 8.7 seconds faster than the previous generation model.
The T-Hybrid high-performance hybrid system on the 911 Targa 4 GTS is equipped with an electric exhaust gas turbocharger, an integrated motor located between the compressor and the turbine, which can instantly increase the speed of the turbocharger for instant charging.
This motor in the turbocharger can also be used as a generator. It draws energy from the exhaust stream to generate up to 11 kW (15 PS) of electricity. The powertrain also includes a permanent magnet synchronous motor integrated in the PDK 8-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Even at idle, the motor can assist the horizontally opposed engine to provide up to 150 Nm of additional drive torque, resulting in a system power boost of up to 40 kW.
Porsche connects two electric motors to a compact, lightweight, high-voltage battery that, while comparable in size and weight to a conventional 12 V starter battery, can store up to 1.9 kWh of energy (total energy) and operate at up to 400 V. In this way, with the newly developed 3.6-liter horizontally opposed engine, the system can achieve a total power of 398 kW (541 PS) and a maximum torque of 610 Nm. Equipped with a ChronSport ejection assembly, it can accelerate for 3.1 seconds per 100 kilometers.
In terms of appearance, the 911 GTS is more modern and concise, with an emphasis on aerodynamic performance.
Tribute to Yourself – Porsche 911 Turbo 50th Anniversary Edition
Porsche’s first 911 Turbo model was born in 1974. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 911 Turbo, Porsche launched the 911 Turbo 50th Anniversary model. Porsche built the 911 Turbo 50th Anniversary model based on the previous generation 911 Turbo S, and selected Heritage Design components, which were limited to 1,974 units worldwide.
The new energy is a major trend, and Porsche, as a sports benchmark, has also brought two forward-looking products in the field of electrification – the new pure electric Macan long-range version and the new Taycan 4, the new Taycan is specially tailored for the Chinese market.
Pure electricity does not reduce the fun of sports
The new pure electric Macan is based on the pure electric 800V platform from PPE, and the new pure electric Macan long-range model has design, sports, energy efficiency and other characteristics.
In terms of three power, it is equipped with a 100 kWh power battery. With a maximum kinetic energy recovery power of 200 kW and a wind resistance coefficient as low as 0.25, the new pure electric Macan long-life version has a comprehensive operating mileage of 702 km (CLTC). Thanks to the advantage of 800V, the charging power of the pure electric Macan long-life version can reach 270 kW, and the battery life can be increased by 260 km after 10 minutes of charging.
Another model, the Taycan 4, is a model exclusive to the Chinese market. While maintaining long range and charging speed, it can also output super power. The Taycan 4 comes standard with a 105 kWh high-performance battery with an output power of 380 kW (517 PS) and a 100-kilometer acceleration of 3.9 seconds.
And equipped with adaptive air suspension, Porsche Sport Chrono ejection, components, BOSE? Surround sound system and other configurations.
At the same time, two models that focus on comfort – the new third generation and the new Cayenne – also landed at the Guangzhou Auto Show, among which the Panamera models are equipped with Porsche Active Ride, etc., while providing higher comfort and Porsche’s signature driving pleasure.
Summary: The trend of new energy is very strong. Porsche has introduced two pure electric high-performance products to the Chinese market, as well as the 911 Targa 4 GTS and 911 Turbo 50th anniversary models, as well as models such as the 911 Carrera T that make high-performance more entry-level. The fuel and electric track will be developed simultaneously. You can look forward to it.
