Porsche says its future is in electric cars, but for now, it is deploying a more powerful version of its main internal combustion engine, the stylish 911 sports car.
Porsche, based in Stuttgart and owned by Volkswagen, will present the eighth version of its iconic model at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
The new 911 does not look very different. It has larger wheel housings and a slightly wider bodywork but the same long hood, sloping roof and prominent headlamps that have marked successive models since 1963.
The new 911 Carrera S and 4S are equipped with flat turbo six-cylinder engines developing 443 horsepower, 23 more horsepower than the predecessor. The Carrera S has a top speed of 191 mph and accelerates from zero to 60 mph (96.5 km / h) in 3.5 seconds.
