Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Announced
Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Announced-April 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:29

Meet the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring, essentially the same car with less show.

While the vast majority of petrolheads lust after the outrageous Porsche 911 GT3, there’s a small client base of customers who aren’t wanting that oversized wing and instead prefer something subtle. Introducing the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring, essentially the same car, but without the trick wing, spoilers and vents.

To the untrained eye, this looks just like your average run-of-the-mill Porsche 911, but don’t be fooled as it still packs a tremendous punch thanks to its naturally-aspirated 4.0-litre flat-6 motor. In its current guise, the Porsche 911 GT3 develops 375 kW and 470 Nm and is good for a 0-100 kph time of 3.4 seconds.Perhaps the most impressive performance figure is the 0-200 kph in just 10.8 seconds. Top speed for the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring is rated at 315 kph. Customers have the choice of a 6-speed manual gearbox or the 7-speed PDK transmission.

It’s all about the subtle styling and detailing, with the Porsche 911 GT3 Touring featuring a rear spoiler that automatically extends, a front custom grille, an exhaust finished in silver and a GT3 Touring badge on the rear .

The GT3 Touring rides on 20- and 21-inch wheels, the same units as those found on the GT3 and a cursory glance at the Porsche configurator shows a huge potential for paint and leather customisation. Porsche says its Touring is aimed at customers who have a “pronounced passion for understatement and classic driving pleasure.” In the era of electrification and semi-autonomous technology, it’s great to see a manufacturer still promoting the art of driving.

As far as pricing and availability is concerned, we only have pricing for the standard Porsche 911 GT3, so use the below amounts as guides for the GT3 Touring.
