2025 Porsche 911: Australian pricing and spec details – carsales.com.au

Must read

Updated sports car icon creeps further up in price, but also gruntier – especially in GTS T-Hybrid form

The facelifted 2025 Porsche 911 range has been priced from $280,500 plus on-road costs in Australia, where the cheapest version of Porsche’s most iconic model will therefore cost more than $315,000 by the time it’s on the road in most states.

Due to arrive Down Under in the first quarter of next year, the upgraded 992.2-series range is topped by the first ever Porsche 911 hybrid, until updated Turbo and GT3 and new GT2 versions make their global debuts.

Until then, the 2025 line-up comprises seven variants across three body styles, including coupe and cabriolet versions of both the base Carrera and all-wheel drive Carrera 4 and the new Carrera GTS T-Hybrid flagship, plus the Targa 4 GTS.

The entry-level 911 Carrera coupe is now $2700 more expensive than before at $280K-plus, while the equivalent cabriolet has risen by $5100 to $303,800 plus ORCs.

Both of these increases are in part due to the addition of 911 Turbo-derived intercoolers and previous GTS-spec turbochargers, which lift outputs to 290kW/450Nm (+7kW) and trim 0.1 seconds from the base 911’s claimed 0-100km/h time (now 4.1sec).

From there the price hikes get much bigger, partly because GTS variants are now fitted with the 911’s first-ever hybrid powertrain, which combines an all-new 3.6-litre flat-six turbo-petrol engine accompanied by an electric turbo and motor, delivering a total system output of 398kW/610Nm.

Porsche claims 0-100km/h acceleration in 3.0sec flat, 0-200km/h in 10.5sec and a top speed of 312km/h.

GTS prices start from $381,200 plus ORCs (up a massive $27,500) for the coupe and stretch all the way up to $437,900 plus ORCs for the Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet and Targa 4 GTS (+$31,300).

Standard equipment across the updated range includes a 12.6-inch digital instrument cluster, 10.9-inch infotainment system, 360-degree camera, top tint windscreen, active park support, lane change assist, comfort access, adaptive dampers, a Bose surround sound system and digital radio.

Carrera-specific kit includes 14-way power-adjustable Comfort seats with memory and adaptive cruise control.

In addition, GTS variants are treated to rear-axle steering, the obligatory sportier suspension set-up and the no-cost option of adaptive cruise control.

Every 2025 Porsche 911 variant revealed date will ship exclusively with an eight-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission, but a manual gearbox could be offered later for the future Carrera S and T variants, not to mention the updated GT3.

However, those hoping for a manual GTS of any type will be disappointed – Porsche has ruled it out on the basis of compatibility with the hybrid system because the primary drive motor is integrated into the PDK.
