The 2024 Porsche 911 Carrera S boasts a significant power upgrade, reaching 480 PS and 530 Nm of torque thanks to new turbos and an intercooler. However, the manual gearbox is gone, leaving the PDK dual-clutch transmission as the sole option. Exterior updates include a redesigned front and rear bumpers and matrix LED headlights, while the interior features a new 12.6-inch digital instrument display and a cooled wireless charger. A range of options are available, including carbon ceramic brakes, PASM adaptive dampers, and rear-wheel steering.
Now that the latter has become an altogether more serious 541 PS proposition, the Carrera S has been allowed to distance itself from the standard Carrera. It’s still petrol-only, but the 3.0 litre twin-turbocharged flat-six has been uprated with new turbos and intercooler and now makes 480 PS and 530 Nm of torque – an increase of 30 PS over the previous model and exactly the same power as the previous GTS.
Now for the bad news – the Carrera S has been shorn of its seven-speed manual gearbox, which means your only option is the eight-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. The upshot is that if you want a “regular” manual 911 your only course of action would be to buy the more focused, which pairs the base Carrera’s engine with a six-speed ‘box. Not that it matters in Malaysia, where the Carrera models has been PDK-only for some time and the latest Carrera T is not offered here at all.
Inside, Porsche has ditched a lot of its trademark features – the engine start twist knob has been replaced by a conventional push button, while the analogue rev counter has made way for a fully-digital 12.6-inch curved instrument display. Standard equipment has been increased significantly and includes staggered 20- and 21-inch wheels , a sports exhaust with silver tips, and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus that is not offered on the Carrera. Inside, you get a black leather package free of charge.
