207 hp · 911 R
The original. A flat-six behind the axle and a shape so right it never needed replacing, only refining.

G-series
1974 – 1989
296 hp · 911 Turbo 3.3
Impact bumpers, sixteen model years, and the arrival of the Turbo, the car that made the 911 frightening.
19895 yr
964
1989 – 1994
376 hp · Turbo S 3.3
Eighty-seven percent new under a familiar skin. Coil springs, power steering, and the first all-wheel-drive 911.

993
1995 – 1998
444 hp · Turbo S
The last of the air-cooled cars, and to many the most beautiful. Multi-link rear suspension finally tamed it.

996
1998 – 2004
477 hp · GT2
Water cooling, shared headlamps, and decades of argument. Underrated then; increasingly forgiven now.

997
2004 – 2012
523 hp · GT2
Round headlamps restored and the range at its widest. The 911 catalogue has never had more entries.
20127 yr
991
2012 – 2019
690 hp · GT2 RS
Longer wheelbase, electric steering, and turbochargers across the Carrera range. The 911 grew up, and got faster for it.
20197 yr
992
2019 – present
701 hp · Turbo S
Wider, stiffer, and now hybrid-assisted in the GTS. The most capable 911 ever built, and the most comfortable.
