最近谍照记者拍到了下一代911（992代）测试照片。第一眼看上去，这款车非常像普通的911卡雷拉4改款车。但如果仔细看，会注意到前后轮拱略微外延。这表明下一代911轮距进一步加宽，内部可能搭载了已经证实的混动系统。测试车的车身也配备了各种测量设备，车厢内似乎配备了防滚架。这表明，该车只是早期测试车，因此预计未来的测试车还会进一步改进。根据目前所知情况，新一代911将采用现行版MMB平台的升级版本，轴距略微增加，后排空间进一步增加。作为911系列的一贯做法，不要指望新车会有很大变化，保时捷只会对该车进行小幅改款。产品生产线负责人Erhard M?ssle去年表示，911“一直是渐进改款，不会革命性改款”，所有的改变都是“逐步进行的”。

 

2018 Porsche 911 test mule spied with wider wheel arches

An interesting test mule of the next Porsche 911 (992 generation) has been caught on camera by our spy photographers.

 

At a first glance this looks pretty much like a regular 911 Carrera 4 facelift (991.2), but if you look closely you’ll notice the front and rear wheel arches are a little bit wider. This indicates the next-generation 911 will have wider tracks that could have something to do with the already confirmed hybrid powertrain. The body of this test mule also has a variety of measuring equipment and on the inside there seems to be a roll cage.

 

That’s about it in terms of changes as this is only an early test mule, so expect additional modifications to occur on more evolved test cars. From what we know so far, the new Porsche 911 will ride on an updated version of the current MMB platform that could come with a slightly longer wheelbase which in return will add more room in the back.

 

In typical 911 fashion, don’t expect major design changes as Porsche will only make minor tweaks to its very successful recipe. Model's product line director Erhard M?ssle said last year the 911 is “always an evolution, not a revolution” and it is always going to be “step by step.”
