The Carrera S incarnation of the 992 Porsche 911, which remains the only engine "version" available to date (you can obviously have the 4S and the Cabriolet forms of the two) has proven it can be even quicker than before, while providing more than enough coziness for the role of a daily driver. As such, the expectations for the nearly-here 992 Porsche 911 Turbo are now sky-high.
The new Turbo should be presented by the end of the year, while the rumor mill talks about customer deliveries being scheduled to kick off next April.
As such, it doesn't come as a surprise that nearly-naked test vehicles have been spotted on both sides of the pond. In fact, we are now looking at the most recent 992 Turbo prototype sighting, with this having taken place in Malibu Beach.
The brief spy clip at the bottom of the page allows us to see the Turbo Coupe's posterior. And it once again seems that we're dealing with the "standard" car, while the image that leaked earlier this year portrayed the Turbo Aerokit.
Oh, and if you're willing to check out the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet, you can find this here.
Regardless of the roof form, the Turbo comes with an even fatter posterior than that of the Carrera S, with the later behind wider than the car it replaces - who knows? Perhaps the 2021 911 Turbo will be as wide as the 991.2 GT2 RS.
While a Turbo-specific implementation of the new 8-speed PDK is a certainly, we can't be sure about the firepower. You see, due to the ever-stricter emission rules, Zuffenhausen might retire the 3.8-liter twin-turbo boxer of the current car and come up with an all-new engine. After all, the carmaker has done this form the 718 Cayman GT4/Boxster Spuder, which are animated by a N/A 4.0-liter flat-six based on the TT 3.0-liter mill of the 992 Carrera S.
As for the Turbo S, the badge might be absent until the introduction of the ".2" mid-cycle revamp, which is still some three to four years away - that's when Porsche might introduce the 911 Turbo S E-Hybrid, a monster that would follow the path set by the corresponding Panamera and Cayenne models.
P.S.: That's right, you Porschephiles! This piece of spy footage was captured from inside a first-gen Panamera.
