911 Carrera GTS

2014–2019Coupé · Cabriolet · Targa

The GTS closes the gap between Carrera S and GT3. The 991.1 versions (2014–2016) used a 3.8-litre naturally aspirated six with 430 PS (316 kW; 424 hp); the 991.2 cars (2017–2019) switched to the 3.0-litre twin-turbo with 450 PS (331 kW; 444 hp) and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft). All wear the wide Carrera 4 body with centre-lock 20-inch wheels, and come with Sport Chrono, PASM lowered 10 mm, PTV, sport exhaust and PDLS lights. Offered as Carrera GTS (rear drive), Carrera 4 GTS and — from 2017 — Targa 4 GTS. The PDK Carrera GTS covers 0–100 km/h in 3.7 s and 310 km/h (193 mph) at 1,470 kg (3,241 lb).
