New Porsche 911 GT3 RS set for 17th August Reveal

Porsche 911 GT3 RS will sit above the 911 GT3 model as the new top of the 911 line in terms of performance. It will be powered by a 500-PS 4.0-litre boxer engine.

Porsche is prepared to take the wheel of the newest, most advanced 911 GT3 RS sports car. On August 17, the luxury automaker will formally introduce the 911 GT3 RS. The 911 GT3 RS will effectively be a street-legal racing car, taking design cues from the 911 RSR and 911 GT3 R GT.

The new 911 GT3 RS is even more tuned for track use than its predecessors, according to Andreas Preuninger, Director GT Model Line at Porsche, who announced the information regarding the reveal event next month. Track days and club sporting events have found great success with the high-revving, impulsively responsive four-litre, six-cylinder boxer engine.

The new Porsche 911 GT3 RS, as the name suggests, is the improved high-performance version of the 911 GT3. Under the hood, the sports car will come with a four-litre, six-cylinder boxer engine that is capable of churning out 500 PS of maximum power. For reference, the Porsche 911 GT3 is also powered by a 4.0-litre naturally aspirated engine capable of generating 502 horsepower. It can sprint from zero to 100 kmph in a little over three seconds and hit a top speed of 317 kmph.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS is expected to get bespoke P Zero Trofeo RS Pirelli tires, active aero with F1-style rear wing. The cabin of the 911 GT3 RS will be characterised by a steering wheel which will feature multiple dials to control output. The GT3 RS is also expected to come with tweaked suspension, throttle and other drive dynamics. “That’s why we focused primarily on aerodynamics and chassis questions in the development of the new 911 GT3 RS,” said Preuninger.
