It is possible for the rear seats to disappear.

Porsche quickly revealed the all-new Porsche Turbo S to give hints as to what’s next for this powerful model. Dr. Frank-Steffen Waller, Porsche’s director for the 718 and 911 product lines told there will be a lighter version of the car later in the year. Although the new Turbo S can already accelerate to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 2.6 seconds it is likely that any weight reduction will have a significant impact on its driving characteristics.

Walliser stated to the publication that the lightweight version would combine “lightweight options”, but he did not provide specifics. Walliser did however say that Porsche would work on sound insulation and that the package would be geared towards “small bits and bobs” to reduce weight. One way to reduce weight is to remove the rear seats, he suggested. Walliser said that the Carrera could also be offered the lightweight configuration.

It is not clear how much Porsche could squeeze out of the Turbo S. It produces 640 horsepower (447 Kilowatts) as well as 590 pound-feet (890 Newton-meters) of torque. This is an increase from the 580 (443kW) and 553 (853 Nm) of the previous generation. An eight-speed PDK drives the power through all four wheels via the power route. Walliser did not mention tweaking the powertrain which delivers supercar-level power and performance.

Walliser also spoke about the milder Turbo model and why it is coming later. The Turbo S is the most popular choice of customers, according to a shocking revelation. A new GT3 is also in development. Porsche has not yet responded to our inquiries about the duck-tailed Turbo S test cars.

Since its inception, Porsche has seen a lot of changes. The company has expanded to include crossovers, and now it offers an all-electric version. However, there is still room for powerful, gas-and air-fed sports cars with tons of horsepower and performance. The Porsche 911 Turbo S 2021 coupe starts at $203,500 You can expect any lightweight package to increase that.
