2015 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS Overview

This new Carrera model is slotted somewhere between regular and high performance Carrera GTS3. It comes with the same engine as the S model, but it has some more power and stronger acceleration. There is a coupe and convertible versions, and both are presented on 2014 LA Auto Show, which was at the same time the big American debut of this vehicle. Comparing to a regular model GTS comes with wider stance, bigger wheels and four wheel drive.

Exterior styling

We already mentioned the bigger wheels this model comes with, comparing to the ones on the regular 911. We are talking about 20 inch alloys with a glossy black finish. Another elegant piece we are going to see on this model are its bi-xenon tinted headlights. There are also some nice chrome bits on the front fascia and buyers can also choose customized GTS air intakes.

Interior

Interior comes with recognizable Porsche styling which includes plenty of Alcantara, like in all other models from this range. There are probably going to be much more luxurious features attached to this model’s interior including some top of the line hi tech, climate control and of course powerful audio system.

2015 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS Performance

This model comes with the same engine we saw on Carrera S. You know, the old 3,8 liter V6. In this model engine comes with a solid power boost, which makes its output climb from 400 horsepower, seen in the S model to mighty 430. This the best you can get from a naturally aspired V6. Prime suspect for this nice power boost are the new Sport Exhaust System and Sport Chrono Package. Another feature that made this vehicle faster and more powerful is the PASM active damper system, which lowers its ride for 10 millimeters comparing to the S model.

GTS is a fast car, with maximum speed that goes from 187 to 190 mph, it depends on the transmission buyers choose, and the exhaust system. Acceleration is also better than in regular and S model, it is able to reach 60 mph in only 3,8 seconds. One of the best things with this model is that in spite of its solid performance upgrade, it still comes with the same fuel efficiency as the S model, from who it took its powertrain.
