Porsche's 911 range has been expanded with the latest Turbo and GT3 variants having been released. The 911 GT3 features a naturally-aspirated 3.6-litre engine, developing a healthy 415 PS (409 bhp, 305 kW) at 7600 rpm. With a claimed weight of just 1395 kg, the GT3 will hit 100km/h from rest in 4.2 seconds, and go on to cover the kilometre in just 21 seconds flat, according to Porsche.
The 911 Turbo weighs a little more, at a claimed 1585 kg, but more than makes up for this with a turbocharged powerplant developing 480 PS (473 bhp, 353 kW) at 6000 rpm. It is said to cover the same benchmarks in 3.9 and 21.5 seconds respectively. Both models are claimed to have a top speed of 310 km/h.
