911 Carrera 4

2019–2024Coupé · Cabriolet

Arrived in September 2019, four months after the rear-drive Carrera, bringing Porsche Traction Management and the wide body to the entry-level 911. The engine is the Carrera's 2,981 cc twin-turbo — 283 kW (385 PS; 379 hp) at 6,500 rpm with 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) from 1,950 rpm — but the front axle drive was redeveloped for the extra mass, and the car carries roughly 50 kg more than the rear-drive Coupé. It reaches 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds, 4.0 with Sport Chrono, and 291 km/h; the Cabriolet needs 4.4 seconds and 289 km/h. PASM became standard across the 992 range, with 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels.
