2012 Porsche 911 NOT coming with hybrid or KERS

0 comments



Earlier this month, there were reports the 2012 Porsche 911 would feature a kinetic energy recovery system (KERS) across the entire model lineup. We had our doubts, so it comes as little surprise the information has been dismissed as complete "nonsense."

A source has revealed "The new 911 will not be offered with hybrid drive for the foreseeable future. If and when it is, it will most likely happen as a plug-in (hybrid)." The latter part is a tad interesting, because it would require a larger and heavier battery than a traditional hybrid.

Regardless of the final details, the 2012 Porsche 911 will be slightly larger and more powerful than the current model.
