    Lighter, Faster Porsche 911 Turbo S in Development

    We only just saw the covers come off the latest Porsche 911 Turbo S offering and already we have learned that a lightweight pack is on the cards to make it even more rapid.

    While talking to media this morning, Dr Frank-Steffen Walliser, the director of 718 and 911 product lines, said that the decision to launch a Turbo S before the Turbo was a market-driven one and also shared that further developments on the variant are likely coming later this year.

    “Looking at our customers, the majority are Turbo S buyers,” Walliser said. “70 to 75 per cent buy the Turbo S, depending on country and where the car is in its lifespan. So that is why we have launched with Turbo S, not the Turbo. But there will be a Turbo – I don’t want to use the words ‘normal Turbo’ because it is anything but normal.”

    “We will add another option later this year that also underlines our attempt to make this car lighter, to also emphasise the very sporty side of the car,” he added. “It will be a lightweight sports package; we’ll pack together lightweight options but also work on the sound insulation of the car, reducing weight a little bit.

    “It’ll only be small bits and pieces but as you know, that can change the character of the car.” Walliser confirmed that the removal of the 911’s rear seats could be one option under consideration for the package.

    • The brand new Haval H6 GT was spotted in Bedfordview JHB by @engineeringkulture 

The H6 is proving to be a big success in SA and this sportier-looking offering is likely to sell very well in Mzansi.

What do you think of it?

    • The first customer Maserati MC20 has landed in SA finished in Bianco Audace. We are expecting 9 units to arrive this year. 

The base comes in at R6,714,000 and that gets you a twin-turbo 3-litre V6 delivering 620 hp (463 kW) and 730 Nm of torque.

It is a very pretty thing. What do you all think?

    • The latest BMW X4 M Competition is undeniably quick. It packs a rip-snorting engine delivering bonkers acceleration and some seriously impressive handling agile enough to trick you into thinking it's a sports car.

This LCI model boasts a sweet technical update, with more performance and better tech on offer, plus bespoke M features for this halo model.

The ride however is a tad hard-edged and the X3 M Competition alternative does offer more practicality. If you prefer coupe-like styling this is the one for you even if Sao Paulo Yellow may not be your first choice.
