Any change to the iconic Porsche 911 qualifies as news, but the headline for 2025 is a big one: Porsche is electrifying road-going 911s for the first time by employing an optional hybrid powertrain. The gas-only powertrain gets a power boost as well, and design and technology updates round out the offerings as the Porsche 911 enters a new generation.
Here’s everything we know so far about the 2025 Porsche 911. Be sure to bookmark this page: we’ll update it as we receive more information.

2025 Porsche 911 styling
A 911 needs to look like a 911, so the design can only change so much. Still, Porsche points to some exterior design updates for 2025. Each model gets its own new front fascia, and lighting has been centralized into the four-point LED matrix configuration. This frees up space formerly occupied by lighting for larger air intakes. On GTS models, five active air flaps are visible on each side of the exterior with another hidden flap closing the bypass from inside. These work with adaptive underbody front diffusors, a first for 911, to direct air flow.
At the rear, the Porsche-branded light band has been redesigned, and a new rear decklid grille with five strakes on each side flows into the automatic and variable rear spoiler. The rear license plate is now mounted higher, and the rear fascia has been simplified. Model-specific exhaust systems are equipped, including an optional sport exhaust system. GTS models receive a unique sport exhaust system as standard.
An available aero kit integrates a unique front fascia and front spoiler lip, special side skirts, and a lightweight fixed rear wing. Seven wheel designs will be available in staggered 19 and 20-inch or 20 and 21-inch combinations, the latter with available carbon fibre aeroblades.
2025 Porsche 911 interior design and practicality
Tired of pretending you can fit four people into your 911? If so, you’ll enjoy this news: from 2025, coupe 911 models will ship with two seats instead of four as standard. A 2+2 seating configuration remains as a no-cost option. The new 911 also comes with a fully digital instrument cluster and a start button for the first time—the latter, naturally, will be positioned to the left of the steering wheel—along with a cooled compartment in the centre console with an inductive phone charging space.
Through the 10.9-inch infotainment system, Apple CarPlay is more deeply integrated into the vehicle, allowing information to be displayed in the instrument cluster. Third-party apps such as Spotify and Apple Music can be accessed natively within the infotainment system without connecting a smartphone, and available video streaming can be accessed while the car is parked.
2025 Porsche 911 engines, motors and drive
And now for the big news: the Porsche 911 hybrid has arrived. The 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS will be the first road-legal 911 ever with a hybrid powertrain, which Porsche dubs the T-hybrid. The engine at its heart is a 3.6 litre six-cylinder boxer engine producing 478 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque on its own. A new eight-speed dual-clutch transmission (PDK) is included with a synchronous motor that’s active full-time, as is a new electrically driven turbocharger. This supplements the engine’s power at idle with up to 110 lb-ft of torque and develops up to 40 kW of power.
Total system output adds up to 532 hp and 449 lb-ft. With this powertrain, the GTS Coupe goes from 0 to 96 km/h in 2.9 seconds, which is 0.3 seconds quicker than the previous model, and has a top speed of 312 km/h.
In 911 Carrera models, an updated version of the 3.0-litre twin-turbo six-cylinder boxer engine is now equipped with the intercooler used in 911 Turbo models, while the turbochargers have been pulled from the previous 911 Carrera GTS’s parts bin. With these changes, the new 3.0-litre makes 388 hp, up 9 hp from the previous model, and up to 331 lb-ft of torque. This version of the 911 Carrera Coupe can go from 0 to 96 km/h in 3.9 seconds, or 3.7 seconds with optional Sport Chrono Package, and hit a top speed of 294 km/h.
Rear axle steering becomes standard equipment for the first time. On the hybrid, the optional Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) roll-stabilization system is integrated into the high-voltage architecture, allowing for a more flexible and precise electro-hydraulic control system. GTS models also include a standard sport suspension with adaptive dampers (PASM) and a 10-millimetre lower ride height compared to the standard 911 Carrera.
