Porsche enthusiasts have a reason to celebrate as the brand introduces the 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe and Cabriolet. Positioned between the 911 Carrera and the 911 Carrera GTS, this latest addition to the Carrera lineup boasts enhanced performance, refined driving dynamics, and an extended list of standard features. Available in both Coupe and Cabriolet configurations, the 2025 Carrera S redefines the concept of everyday sports cars.
Power and Performance
At the heart of the 2025 Carrera S is a re-engineered 3.0-liter twin-turbo boxer six-cylinder engine. Delivering 473 horsepower and 390 lb.-ft. of torque, this powerplant outshines its predecessor by 30 hp. Porsche’s meticulous engineering, including new turbochargers and optimized charge-air cooling, ensures improved performance while maintaining lower emissions.
The Carrera S Coupe sprints from 0 to 60 mph in a blistering 3.1 seconds when equipped with the Sport Chrono Package. A top track speed of 191 mph further solidifies its credentials as a high-performance machine. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via an eight-speed Porsche dual-clutch transmission (PDK), offering lightning-fast gear changes for an exhilarating drive.
Enhanced Standard Equipment
Porsche has significantly elevated the standard equipment in the 2025 Carrera S, emphasizing both performance and luxury. Key upgrades include:
- Sport Exhaust System: Tailpipes finished in silver add both style and sound.
- Upgraded Brakes: Borrowed from the previous 911 Carrera GTS, the braking system features 408 mm front and 380 mm rear discs for confident stopping power.
- Suspension Enhancements: Updated dampers with optimized hydraulics deliver improved ride comfort and handling.
For drivers seeking even more customization, options such as Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB), PASM Sport Suspension, and rear axle steering are available. These enhancements further refine the Carrera S’s agility and stability, making it a versatile performer on both road and track.
Luxurious Interior Upgrades
Inside, the 2025 Carrera S is a showcase of luxury and innovation. An increased amount of leather upholstery is now standard, covering seats, headrests, upper dashboard, and upper door panels. The Cabriolet models include rear seats as standard, while Coupe buyers can opt for a two-seat configuration at no extra cost.
For those seeking even greater refinement, Porsche offers a full leather interior option, extending leather coverage to additional surfaces like the lower dashboard and rear tunnel. Exclusive Manufaktur Leather Interiors with up to 48 two-tone combinations provide an unmatched level of personalization.
Standard interior features include:
- Matrix Design LED Headlights: Ensuring exceptional visibility in all conditions.
- Wireless Smartphone Charger: A cooled compartment adds practicality to luxury.
- Drive Mode Selector: Conveniently placed on the heated steering wheel for effortless adjustments.
Optional upgrades like the front axle lift system and HD-Matrix Design LED headlights further enhance the driving experience.
