While Porsche has kept basically all of the details about this upcoming 911 model under wraps, it did reveal its Nürburgring time. According to Porsche, the 911 hybrid lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 7:16.934 minutes. This puts it, according to Porsche, 8.7 seconds quicker than the Porsche 911 Carrera S.

If you’re concerned about reliability, Porsche talked about that, too. The company notes that this hybrid powertrain propelled the Porsche 911 over 3 million miles during testing. The company also says that they tested the 911’s upcoming hybrid model in a variety of road and environmental conditions, so prospective customers should have some confidence while Porsche ushers in its hybrid future.

As for pricing—and availability—you’re probably going to have to wait until after May 28, 2024, for both of those pieces of information. The 911 hybrid could replace the Carrera S, which currently starts at $131,300. And it’s not out of the question for this hybrid-equipped 911 to start north of $140,000.
