Material. Porsche assures that the 992 GT2 RS will be no more than 220 pounds (100 kg) heavier than the Turbo S. The Porsche 992 GT2 RS Should Feature The Redesigned 911 Look As the 992 GT2 RS is still in development, it will be some time before we see the final version of the car. So far, the test mule looks similar to the GT3 RS with the most noticeable difference being the air scoops on the rear quarter-panels, which are inherited by the 911 Turbo. The centrally-positioned tailpipes are the same as on the GT3, but on the prototype, they are dummies. The real ones are hidden in the two far corners of the bumper, which to no surprise (as the GT2 is based on the Turbo), would mean the exhaust setup will be very similar to that of the 992 Turbo. As for the rest of the exterior, the 992 GT2 RS will feature the 992.2 redesign and Porsche assures us, it will be very distinctive from the 992 GT3 models, including the GT3 RS. Porsche 992 GT2 RS Production As for when the Porsche 992 GT2 RS is coming, it really depends on how much development and testing Porsche still needs to do before the car is ready for production. Porsche is shooting for a 2025 debut, with a 2026 release also being on the table. The 992 GT2 RS will, likely, be a limited-production model, like all other GT2 RS models before it. The 991 GT2 RS was produced in 1,000 copies while the 997 GT2 RS, in 500 (1,272 with the non-RS models). The 996 and 993 GT2 generations did not feature RS versions. They were produced in 1,287 and 193 units, respectively. In the meantime, Porsche introduced an Evo kit for the Porsche 991 GT2 RS, which includes more aggressive aerodynamics that would give the previous, ultimate 911 a bigger edge on the racetrack. While not confirmed, the Porsche 991 GT2 RS Evo kit may feature some revised aerodynamics that we might see on the 992 GT2 RS.

In order to be adapted for use in the rear-engine 911 GT2 RS. To save weight and space, the hybrid system in the 992 GT2 RS will feature a 400-volt architecture instead of the 963 endurance car's 800-volt. We know the battery will be placed behind the rear seats of the 911 GT2 RS while the electric motor will be placed inside the transmission bellhousing, just like in the 963 LMDh racer. The Quickest 911 Yet Porsche When it comes to the 2025 Porsche 911 GT2 RS performance figures, the number 700 horsepower, often, pops up. Given the small electric motor and the fact the 992 GT2 RS will utilize the 992 Turbo S flat-six, we can expect 700 or more horsepower. To put things in perspective, the Porsche 992 Turbo S develops 640 horsepower at 6,750 RPM and 590 pound-feet (800 Nm) from 2,500 to 4,000 RPM. 2025 Porsche 911 GT2 RS Specifications Engine 3.75-liter twin-turbo flat-6 + 1x Bosch MGU electric motor Transmission 8-speed PDK automatic Drivetrain Hybrid, Rear-engine, RWD Power ~700 hp Torque ~737 lb-ft 0-60 MPH ~2.5 seconds With over 700 horsepower, the 992 GT2 RS will be quicker than the 991 GT2 RS, but more importantly, it will feature significantly more torque due to the hybrid setup, possibly around 737 pound-feet (1,000 Nm). This means we can expect an even quicker acceleration than the 991 GT2 RS' 2.8-second sprint to 60 mph (97 km/h). The 991 GT2 RS boasts a top speed of 211 mph (340 km/h), despite the aggressive aerodynamics so, we can expect the 992 GT2 RS to be slightly faster than the Turbo S, despite the tall rear wing. The 2025 Porsche 911 GT2 RS will also feature an EV mode, which means it will be able to run on electricity alone. The electric range will, likely, be around 20 miles (32 km) or less, and somehow, we doubt owners will be using it a lot. The 992 GT2 RS Will Go On A Diet To Compensate For Hybrid Tech Porsche As with previous iterations of the Porsche 911 GT2, power will be sent, exclusively, to the rear wheels. The eight-speed PDK transmission will continue to serve and there is no mention of a manual option - that died with the 997-generation Porsche 911 GT2. The lack of all-wheel drive and the addition of a hybrid powertrain resulted in a weight distribution of 39/61 between the front and rear axles. Typically, all rear-wheel-drive Porsche 911s feature a weight distribution of around 40/60, it the addition of an electric motor isn't a drastic change. Moreover, Porsche is doing everything it can to compensate for the added weight, including more comprehensive use of lightweight

Summary The 2025 Porsche 911 (992) GT2 RS will be the first 911 to feature hybrid propulsion. The GT2 RS electrification aspect is derived from Porsche's racing efforts The Porsche 992 GT2 RS test mule is not giving us the final look of the car. Porsche promises it will be very distinctive from other versions of the 992 Like previous 911 GT2 models, the 992 GT2 RS will be loosely based on the 911 Turbo, but this time, with a few more tweaks that would set it apart The 992 GT2 RS will be more powerful, but not much heavier than the 911 Turbo, despite the hybrid powertrain Porsche 911 has been the definitive, German, high-performance car since 1964. Eight generations later, Porsche's signature, rear-engine sports car continues to set the pace. Between all the body styles, drivetrain, and engine and transmission options, the 992 generation, like others before it, can be had in well over 20 different variants so, there's a 911 for every taste, budget, or need. The 992-generation 911 has been around since 2018 and in true Porsche tradition, the ultimate version of the car is left for the end. Porsche has been running tests on the Nurburgring, with a high-performance 911 test mule, featuring a turbocharged engine and aggressive body kit. This is the 992 GT2 RS we know Porsche has been developing for a while, and here's everything we know about it so far. Electrification Will Not Be Extensive Porsche The possibility of a Porsche 911 hybrid has been on the table for some time. In an interview with Reuters, Porsche e-fuels team leader, Karl Dums, assures the Porsche 911 will be produced for as long as possible, with a combustion engine. By 2030, Porsche aims to make 80 percent of its lineup electric, but the 911 will not be among them. Fans can rest easy as the hybrid test mule doesn't foreshadow the end of the ICE-powered Porsche 911. As for the extent of the 992 GT2 RS electrification, there will be a single electric motor nested between the flat-six engine and the transmission. By all accounts, it seems the 2025 Porsche 911 GT2 RS will be a mild hybrid. The 992 GT2 RS electric motor will be derived from the Porsche 963 LMDh race car. The electric motor-generator is a co-development between Bosch and Williams Advanced Engineering and utilizes an 800-volt architecture with a 1.35-kWh battery. The motor generator unit (MGU) is located in the transmission bell housing of the Porsche 963 race car. In motorsport applications, the electric motor generates up to 68 horsepower (40 kilowatts) with the minimum output being 40 horsepower (30 kilowatts). The MGU is expected to undergo modifications

This Porsche 911 is strictly for speed.The Porsche 911 GT2 RS takes the incredible Porsche 911 sports car DNA and brings it to the absolute maximum. With incredibly lightweight construction that brutally refuses to compromise in the name of pure performance, dynamics, and speed, and a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter six-cylinder engine that has been brought up to a mind-blowing 700 horsepower, the Porsche 911 GT2 RS is a fearsomely capable performance car that will invariably impress on any road or track.If you are looking to purchase a new example, the most prominent Porsche 911 GT2 RS specs is the suggested retail price of 293,200. For that amount, you will have a curb weight of 3,236 lbs and a power-to-weight ratio better than a fighter jet. Given the volatility of the Europen Union, Germany’s major banks are suggesting their clients invest in Porsche’s most powerful model, as it will offer better returns than stocks or bonds. Imagine buying a 964 or 930 a few years ago, if you have the means this car will appreciate to a healthy profit. Porsche is not limiting the 911 GT2 RS production numbers, so hopefully, mine is on the way.VIDEO REVIEW: TechArt GTstreet RPorsche 911 GT2 RS ReviewThe 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS specs do not disappoint. In fact, it is the most powerful 911 that Porsche has ever created. Allow us to review this mean machine so you can make an informed purchase. The source of this power is the same twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-six engine founds in the 911 Turbo S. However, Porsche has turned up the power exponentially. When compared to the 2011 GT2 RS, the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS horsepower number is 80 more horsepower and 37 more lb-ft of torque. It stands as the flagship for their motorsports (RennSport) division, sending all of its power to the rear wheels. The GT2 class doesn’t allow 4WD or AWD, so this is the modern Widowmaker.In an ideal world, every Porsche 911 would be All-Wheel Drive. However, purists who enjoy oversteer can use the accelerator to simply overpower the rear tires. Technically known as “Throttle Induced Oversteer”, it is known as a power slide, or simply drifting. What really makes the Porsche 911 GT2 RS specs so much fun is rear-wheel steering. Without driveshafts or a front differential, the rear wheels are programmed to turn opposite of the fronts by 2.8 degrees. This effectively shortens the wheelbase by adding 45 degrees of steering input below 30 miles per hour. On the contrary, above 49 miles per hour, the rear wheels turn in the same direction as the front wheels. In this mode, they only move by 1.5 degrees which makes a world of difference

On high-speed tracks. Having such a small turning circle is like having an ACME rocket with a go-kart attached.Porsche 911 GT2 RS EngineThe latest in turbo technology results is an astonishing 700 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. The VarioCam system constantly alters the timing of all 4 cams to make the optimal use of 22 lbs of boost. Mated to the proven engine is a customized seven-speed double-clutch transmission Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK). With the efficiency that this transmission provides, the new Porsche 911 GT2 RS rockets 0-60 mph in just 2.7 seconds, reaching a top speed of 211 mph (The 911 Turbo S has a 0-60 mph time of 2.8 seconds).Bigger is better in most areas, but the Porsche 911 GT2 RS top speed needed strength instead of size. That is why it uses a 3.8L engine instead of the 4.0L found in the naturally aspirated Porsche 911 models. It reaches maximum power at 7,000 rpm and offers a combined 17 MPG.MUST READ: Porsche 911 GT2 RS Smashes The ‘Ring RecordPorsche 911 GT2 RS DesignWeighing in at 3,241 lbs, the car is already very lightweight. However, the optional Weissach package ($31,000) can drop the weight by an additional 40 lbs. This package includes magnesium wheels (25 lbs reduction), carbon fiber components (roof, antiroll bars, and end-links on both axles). Another feature in the Weissach package is the carbon fiber weave of the luggage compartment lid that is left mostly exposed, with a decorative strip in the vehicle color running centrally along with it. The 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS is available to order with a base MSRP of $293,200, not including the $1,050 delivery fee. Styling is where the Porsche 911 GT2 RS specs allow it to stand apart from lesser models. Aerodynamics are the main focus, with spoilers, vents, and intakes keeping it glued to the track.2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS SpecsPrice:$293,200Engine:Twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-sixHorsepower:700 hpTorque:553 lb/ft0-60 mph:2.7 sTop Speed:211 mphTransmission:7-speed PDKPorsche 911 GT2 RS TransmissionIt takes a beefy gearbox to handle 700 horsepower. We love manual transmissions, but they simply can’t handle this level of power. Even and odd numbered gears have their own clutch. While one is engaged the other is already shifted into the next gear. In PDK Sport mode, every shift happens in the twinkling of an eye. The Porsche 911 GT2 RS specs include a transmission that is loaded with hardened steel parts & shot-peened shafts. It shifts in milliseconds and it does so with authority. Unlike lesser models, engine power and ignition timing are not cut during the shift so you will have uninterrupted power to 211 mph. The ratios are very close to keeping the turbos in boost.
