New 911 GT2 RS taps racing hybrid tech to top 700bhp

Porsche will lay the foundations for the electrification of the 911 with an advanced new GT2 RS Hybrid – a model that will be the most powerful and fastest-accelerating road going variant of the iconic sports car yet, according to company insiders.

Due in 2026, the top-of- the-line, limited-run 911, which is expected to cost upwards of £250,000, is being engineered with a newly developed hybrid drivetrain that will target “more than 700bhp”.

This will be achieved using tech originally developed by Porsche Motorsport for the Le Mans 24 Hours-winning 919 Hybrid and further developed for its successor, the recently unveiled 963 LMDh racer.

The new petrol-electric drivetrain is envisaged to be launched in the GT2 RS before being offered in other, less extreme 911 models by the end of the decade.
