Porsche has subtly tweaked the exterior bits while retaining the overall 911 silhouette. The refreshed front bumper, new LED headlights and 19 (front) and 20-inch (rear) alloy wheels are noteworthy, while the connected rear LED strip has become sportier. For differentiation's sake, the Carrera 4 GTS gets 6 vertical (5 outside and 1 hidden) flaps to direct airflow at both ends on the bumper ahead.  

911s’ interior is loaded with a 10.9-inch touchscreen and 12.6-inch curved display, sunroof, tyre pressure monitoring system, cruise control and reverse camera.

The base 911 is powered by a tried-and-tested 3-litre twin-turbo flat-six block that clocks 100 kmph in 3.9 seconds (with Sports Chrono package) while belting out 349 hp and 450 Nm of pulling force.

Next up, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS gets a 1.9 kWh hybrid setup paired with a 3.6-litre six-cylinder engine (electrically turbocharged), making it quicker than the above-mentioned car by a whopping 0.6 seconds. With a power and torque output of 541 hp and 610 Nm, the top speed comes at 312 kilometres per hour. However, the car cannot be driven on EV solely.
