Porsche 911 Turbo S presents itself and its 530 HP

Porsche isn’t letting up and has just revealed the 911 Turbo S model, which is the first time this prestigious badge is attached to the current 997 generation. And judging from the performance figures, it is completely deserving, as the Turbo S generates 530 from the twin-turbo flat-six engine, while keeping fuel economy in line with the regular 911 Turbo.

Those 530 horses will be kept company by 516 lb-ft of torque, which is transferred through the seven-speed PDK gearbox to all of the four wheels, now running on 19-inch rims. That, coupled with the new torque vectoring system, will see the 911 Turbo S sprint from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.3 seconds, and up to 196 mph.

If these figures have already got you excited, the Turbo S will be officially revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and will go on sale, at least in Europe, in May. It will be available in two flavors, the normal coupe for €173,241 including taxes, and cabriolet, for €184,546, also taxes included.
