保时捷在法兰克福车展发布了911 GT3 Touring，该车豪华性进一步突出，而运动性能略有降低。它采用了普通的内部机械结构，拿掉了固定尾翼，车厢内更舒适。911 GT3 Touring 是911R精神上的继任者。该车只提供六速手动变速器和机械后差速器及后轮转向。车辆搭载一台4.0升水平对置六缸引擎，功率368千瓦/494马力，扭矩460牛米，与GT3一样。据保时捷介绍，该车百公里加速时间3.9秒，最高时速316公里。该车的绝大部分车身面板都与GT3共享，车厂为其提供了911卡雷拉的后扰流器，但在其边缘采用了Gurney襟翼，这是车辆改款的一部分。引擎盖上带有GT3Touring标志。侧窗边框，排气尾管，前大灯喷嘴盖和车尾标志采用银色装饰，突出了复古风格。车厢内座椅中间为织物材质而非Alcantara，而方向盘，排挡杆，扶手，中控台盖，车门把手则采用真皮装饰。
Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Package Hides 494 HP Under Smooth Tail
Folks in the market for a slightly more luxurious and less outwardly sporty Porsche should fall in love with the new Touring Package for the 911 GT3. It features all the regular model’s mechanical highlights but slices off the fixed rear wing. The cabin is nicer, too.
The 911 GT3 with the Touring Package is the spiritual successor to the 911 R because the new model focuses on driver engagement over outright speed. Customers can exclusively get it with a six-speed manual with a mechanical rear differential and rear-axle steering. The 4.0-liter flat six pumps out the same 494 horsepower (368 kilowatts) and 339 pound-feet (339 pound-feet) as the normal GT3. According to Porsche, the variant needs 3.9 seconds to reach 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) and can achieve a top speed of 196 mph (316 kph).
The Touring Package shares most of the same body panels as the standard GT3, expect at the rear. Rather than a big wing, Porsche fits a deployable rear spoiler like the 911 Carrera, but the part in this application features a tiny Gurney flap at the edge for a sporty tweak. The grille on the engine cover gets a GT3 Touring badge, too. Silver-colored trim lends a slightly retro aesthetic by covering the side window surrounds, tailpipes, headlight washer covers, and rear Porsche logo.
Inside, the Touring Package uses fabric for the center of the seats and leather on the bolsters. Instead of using yards of Alcantara, Porsche installs smooth-finish leather and the material covers the steering wheel rim, shift lever, armrests, center console lid, and door handles.
