Porsche 911 GT3 Touring casually

2021-06-19T08:21:25.394Z


NEW - The German manufacturer wastes no time. The 992 GT3 had barely started its career when it derived a Touring version that played on sobriety.


With its large fixed spoiler overhanging the rear hood, the latest 992 GT3 is not a model of discretion.

Admittedly, this aerodynamic appendage contributes to the performance of the sportiest 911, but it may put off some enthusiasts.

For them, Porsche is renewing the Touring pack that appeared on the previous 991 generation. In a neutral color, the GT3 Touring would go almost incognito.

  • What responsibility at the wheel of an “autonomous car”?

The fixed aileron is replaced by an automatically deploying spoiler whose mission is to help maintain heading at high speed.

Among the other distinctive signs contributing to the elegance of the Touring, the side windows are highlighted with an aluminum jong and the front fascia is painted in the same color as the body.

No doubt, however.

The Touring version is indeed a GT3: we find the two Naca air intakes in the front cover, the largely indented front bumper and the double central exhaust outlet which frames the diffuser.

The interior of the Touring model is also distinguished from that of the GT3 by black leather trim and an embossed finish for the front of the dashboard and the upper part of the door panels.

The bucket seats are draped in mixed fabric / leather upholstery.

A manual gearbox

That makes all the difference: the naturally aspirated 4-liter flat-six with 510 horsepower is mated to the six-speed manual transmission. With this transmission, the GT3 Touring does not exceed 1,418 kilos. At no extra cost, however, the customer can order the car with the 7-speed PDK gearbox. For the rest, the chassis of the Touring version is identical to that of the GT3. It is thus not forbidden to the owners of this model of sobriety to offer excursions in circuit. To this end, the dashboard now has a display dedicated to useful information on the track, called Track Screen. With the press of a button, the digital display on the left or right of the tachometer is reduced to the center position so that you can view tire pressure, oil pressure,oil temperature, fuel level, coolant temperature.

Porsche

The 911 GT3 has an easy-to-access steering wheel mode selector that allows you to quickly switch from "Normal" to "Sport" and "Track" modes.

The two models of the 911 GT3 generation 992 are offered at the same price of 173,562 euros.
