We have learned from Porsche that the new 911 GT 3 RS and the new 911 GT 2 RS have been officially launched. Both models are high-performance versions of the 911 lineup, with a more aggressive design and significantly improved performance.

Highlights of the new 911 GT 3 RS model: 4.0 L horizontally opposed six-cylinder/maximum power 521 hp/0-100 km/h acceleration time 3.2 seconds

The new 911 GT 3 RS is based on the new 911 GT and is more aggressive in appearance than the regular version, while further optimizing the aerodynamics. The new model has a more aggressive front bumper design with the air intake on both sides of the bumper and both sides of the hood.

The new 911 GT 3 RS uses a lot of technology from racing cars, and the precision of the spherical joints on all rocker's arms is better than that of conventional elastomeric bearings. The front wheels have 20-inch lightweight wheels with 265/35 sports tires to enhance agility and steering characteristics. At the rear, the car is equipped with 21-inch wheels matched with 325/30 tires.

At the rear, the new car is equipped with a large rigid rear spoiler, and the new car's wide body has been further optimized in terms of weight.

The new 911 GT 3 RS is said to be available with an optional Weissach package, which will further reduce the weight of the car. This package includes additional chassis, interior, and exterior carbon fiber components, and optional magnesium wheels, the lightest component that can reduce the weight of the new 911 GT 3 RS to 1,430 kg.

Inside, the car retains its classic racing style, with full-size carbon fiber bucket seats for better lateral support. The new car is also made with great care in terms of materials, with lightweight door panels with storage nets and pulls, less sound insulation, and a new lightweight rear cover for lightweight. In addition, the new car is equipped with an anti-roll bar inside the car.

To further improve handling, the new 911 GT 3 RS also features a retuned rear-wheel steering system to further enhance steering precision. The new car will be powered by a 4.0 L horizontally opposed six-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 521 hp (383 kW, 520 hp) and a peak torque of 470 NM. The transmission is matched with a specially tuned 7-speed PDK dual-clutch gearbox. In terms of performance, the new car accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and is expected to reach a top speed of 312 km/h.

Highlights of the new 911 GT 2 RS: 3.8T twin-turbocharged horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine/maximum power 700 hp/0-100 km/h acceleration time 2.7 seconds

In terms of appearance, the new car has a more aggressive design than the 911 GT 3 RS model. The large opening on the front bumper allows the new car to cool faster, and the ventilation ducts for brake cooling have been added to the front storage box lid, while the shark cheek cooling ports on both sides of the front wing are more prominent.

At the rear, the new car features a two-tone rear surround and a large bilateral exhaust tailpipe with two outlets, while the larger fixed rear spoiler demonstrates the unique charm of the 911 GT 2 RS.

In terms of the interior, the new car adopts a lightweight design, with a red and black color scheme that looks very sporty, while the application of large areas of carbon fiber and the reduction of door handles and rear seats make the overall weight of the new car only 1470 kg.

The new car is powered by a 3.8 T twin-turbocharged horizontally opposed 6-cylinder engine with 700 hp and 750 NM of peak torque, with an additional 50 NM of peak torque available in supercharged mode. It is paired with a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. Officially, the new car's 0-96 km/h takes only 2.7 seconds.
