The first ever Porsche 911 was designed by F.A. Porsche – son of the founder of the company, Ferry Porsche – and his team. The original 911 had an air-cooled flat-six engine instead of the four-cylinder boxer engine of the 356.

From 1965, Porsche offered the four-cylinder 912; a year later, the company launched the 911 S with 160 PS. In autumn 1965, Porsche unveiled the 911 Targa with its striking stainless steel roll-over bar – the first truly safety-conscious cabriolet in the world.

After the first big leap forward in 1974 with the debut of the 911 Turbo 3.0, the 911 Turbo 3.3 followed in 1977, introducing intercooling – a technology first used in racing that allowed for significant power boosts.

2017年11月5日 · In 2006, Porsche introduced the 911 Turbo, the first petrol-operated series-produced car to include a turbocharger with variable turbine geometry. Model improvements in the autumn of 2008 made the 997 even more efficient thanks to direct fuel injection and a double-clutch transmission.

2020年5月26日 · As early as the autumn of 1988, Porsche introduced the first all-wheel drive 911 with the 911 Carrera 4 Type 964, making it the third generation of the iconic sports car from Zuffenhausen. Porsche retained the classic body shape of the 911, but underneath about 85 percent of all the parts were new.

The original 911 offered what its predecessor still lacked: the first Porsche 911 featured two fold-down seats in the rear. It also had a large luggage compartment and a powerful boxer engine with six cylinders, all packed into a smooth, sleek and modern body.

After 10 years, Porsche revised the 911 from the ground up, without watering down the silhouette or the design. Engines Porsche initially opted for the six-cylinder boxer with 2.7 litres of displacement and Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection.

The 996 was the first Porsche to wear a GT3 badge Filling a niche at the top of the model range, the 911 GT3 (type 996) arrived in 1999. This marked the first time that the legendary GT3 letters graced the famed sloping 911 rear.

Porsche introduces the first 100-percent all-new 911 model since the first one in 1964. The new car breaks with 911 tradition by using a liquid-cooled engine — though it’s still a horizontally opposed six.

Porsche had been producing the first-generation 911 for 10 years when, in 1973, the engineers in Stuttgart radically revamped the sports car. Beyond the modified design, it was the technology in the G-Series, as the new 911 generation was dubbed, that set it apart from its predecessor.
