The 2025 992.2 series 911 is just a few months away from an official reveal, and the camouflage has finally come off of the prototypes, giving us our first clear look at the updated exterior of the latest 911 Carrera, S and cabriolet trims. And for the most part, I think Porsche fans are gonna be happy. So lets take a deep dive look at the 2025 911.
The exterior updates to the .2 911 can be described in a very simple way, everything that's metal stays the same, and everything that isn't metal has been redesigned.
Now I know the main question on everyone's mind is: what is going on here and here?
This is a 911 carrera that has been fitted with the sport design package and the aerokit, so if you're one of the many people who does not like the way this front looks, you can breathe a sigh of relief, because the standard 911 will not look like this.
Just like the sport design and aerokit packages found on the .1 car, they feature active aero shutters upfront, but now those shutters are vertical instead of horizontal. The packages also feature an extended front splitter, extended side skirts, a different exhaust system, a different intake on the decklid and an elevated spoiler. And it looks like it many of these items have been carried over from the .1 car
But I do have to say that this front end looks un-finished, and I can't believe this is the final product.
**front**
Up front on the non- sport design cars, the redesigned fascia is a big improvement over the previous car, as the 992.1 carrera had one of the most visually awkward fronts of any 911.
The layout of the 3 large openings is definitely a step in the right direction, and the bulges on either side of the outer radiator intakes give the car a much more aggressive and muscular appearance, without taking away from the overall lines of the car. In black it doesn't show that much, but when these cars start appearing in other colors, those little details are going to make a big difference in the cars overall appearance.
The new splitter features a complete wraparound design that is more reminiscent of the 992 GT3, While the .1 features a blended splitter design that's more reminiscent of the 997.
The new headlamp lenses have a much cleaner and more simple design, and the lights themselves feature a redesigned five-dot matrix system, with the daytime running bulbs in each assembly now functioning as turn signals.
But I can't help but to think the headlamp redesign is a little too simple. The additional details in the .1 headlamps looked good and were more reminiscent of the air-cooled 911s, but this is not to say that the updated design looks bad.
Now lets take a look at the most improved area of the car's exterior, which is the back.
The updated fascia is a huge improvement. The design of the 992.1 strayed too far from the typical 911 styling, while the .2 adopts several visual cues from the 992 GT3, which is the one of the best looking water-cooled cars to date.
The rear lightbar assembly has also been redesigned, with the lower horizontal light strips stretching deeper towards the center, and flanking the repositioned porsche lettering, which is covered by vinyl in these images. The new porsche lettering is rumored to light up when the headlamps are turned on. The farther reaching lower light strips are a small change, but they make a big difference, as they balance the car's proportions and design details much better.
The rear decklid design might be one element that looked better on the previous car. For the .1 cars, porsche hid an easter egg detail in the decklid by putting nine slats on either side of the center brake light, and making the center brake light look like an 11, creating a visual way to say 911. So there was an element of thought that went in there, and it looked really good too.
The decklid on the .2 car now features six slats on either side of the brake light, and the new design reminds me of a stopwatch
Other updates include smaller rear reflectors, redesigned moulding around the tailpipes, indentations inspired by the GT3, and the vents for the intercoolers have been relocated away from the fascia, which may account for the biggest visual improvement here. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Being as objective as possible and after having driven almost everything, I am now convinced that there is nothing better, in any aspect, than a 911
Every car enthusiast who gets interested in automotive engineering and design basically lands on the 911 as the Ultimate Driving Machine
I think you have the standard and sport design bumpers reversed. The base bumper has been getting the active aero vents since turbocharging the full line, while the sport design removes the flaps. I disagree with the update, I think the design changes are too busy and just add more complexity to a cleaner .1 design. And no one wants an all digital gauge cluster.
Yes most likely got it reversed
Whether or not you want to, a lot of people do want an all digital gauge cluster
I agree with a previous comment that the front ends are reversed. The version with the aero shutters is definitely the standard version, just like how the current standard version also has aero shutters. Likewise, the sport design version has no aero shutters for the 992.1, so likely that will continue for the 992.2. Just because the car also featured the aero kit rear spoiler, doesn’t mean the front has to be the sport design version. Otherwise very good content.
Idk what you are talking about, the lotus Emira is one of the best styled cars you can buy
The Emira is a stunning car and I say this as a long time Porsche owner.
Subjectivity speaking the Lotus looks great in photos and videos … in person it does nothing for me. I’m sure it handles well
On first balance I like the look of the new rear bumper, GT-inspired with a dimple crease seen in profile and from behind. Gives it another dimension that the .1 base doesn't have, and also provides more consistency with the license plate location between Sport Design and non-SD options. However, on second look (your editing helps with this BTW), the new rear looks busy in comparison to the .1 The spy image suggests a 5-layer surface consisting of: the light bar, bumper line, new mid-fascia (+ lower reflector shroud - that IMHO looks glued-on), and finally the tailpipe valence. It seems broken-up to me, less horizontal which is the design mantra of the 992 ... I hope it isn't the final version, maybe it will be bait for GT-3 wanna bees electing a SD package. Perhaps I'll warm to the final version, but for now there are too many ideas. The standard .1 rear seems more coherent. Other's have mentioned this before, but .2 styling (from many manufacturers) is usually a result of fussy versions of the original .1 version.
Not everyone loves the style of the 992. It is an era of throw-back design attitudes where Porsche quotes 'details' from 911s of the 1980s (squared edge hood + center vent crease, horizontal grille, 959 rear bumper side vents, continuous taillight, and hips from the turbo cars). I think its is worth talking about, the evolution of the classic 911 shape. Thanks for speculating with us (it's worth ruminating about ... avoid lazy thinking). :-)
I passed on the 992.1 for the dot two also hoping that made the right decision ……currently have a 992.1 cabriolet 4S
❤😂😢😮😅😅😊😊 I know you’re explaining to all the new models of Porsches but don’t mean nothing to me because I like all of the porches. I don’t care if it’s a 914 or 930 or 935 or 959 or 928 I love them all. Keep up the good work. Take care and remember this week is Mother’s Day, so take care, bro
Fingers crossed that I haven't held off on my 992.1 order for nothing. :)
you're making a mistake, just look at those taillights of the facelift version
Watch a tuned base model 992.2 hybrid Carrera be faster then a 992.1 turbo 😂
Passed on 992.1 T allocation to get a 992.2. I think i made a great decision!
Time will tell - bird in hand. I got a 992.1 T and happy with it until I get a 991.2 or 992.1 GT3.
❤😂😢😮😅😅😅😊😊😊 😊 forget the electric shit. It cost too much money and when the batteries go out, it’s too damn expensive. They’re going too fast with all this bullshit so let’s go with the gas cars. We have enough gas for 30 to 40 years so wake up, everybody don’t go electric.
Hard to like the 992 in either .1 or .2 guise.
The current car designers at Porsche, BMW and Ferrari are all the worst. I miss the 60's when cars were beautiful and sexy.
hurry up already with the .2 so the .1 prices can go down.
Why doesn't Porsche make all their Cabriolet's look like a Speedster? Not like it would cost a penny extra.
Here is my thoughts on an 992.2 announcement. May 28th ;)
Glad a I bought a 992.1 Carrera T instead of waiting. Mine is the last manual transmission car before they go hybrid.
You refuse to let go of your junk , have no idea what you are missing out on and how wicked PDK is.
The 992.2 Carrera T will still be manual
@@7ludi probably, but there's no telling if they make a 992.2 T or not.
@@sillynut2958 2 pedals are for bicycles
@@NickStillo they will make one
You would think Porsche would take one of the many cool AI generated 911 designs and build a good looking car!
The car will be too heavy with the extra engine.
Stop hating on the Emira because it looks exotic now. This porsche is more you...understated
Agreed. I like the look of both.
👍🏼
👏👏👏👏
It is time for Porsche to ditch the 911's rear seats and make the car mid engine so it handles better.
If you note, in every incarnation the engine goes a couple inches into the center.
@@matiasferrer3505 GTE 911 RSR controversially mounted the engine in a position that effectively made it mid-engined
@@sillynut2958 That's right and for the less status-biased there is also the Cayman 718 GT4 RS
@@matiasferrer3505 I dig everything about the 718 GT4 RS accept it is so ugly, also not a fan of the 911's looks. Give me a McLaren!
GT3 at 3.6,litter is laughing stock …
I don’t see any diff
911s looks the same every year
And?
I’m also looking forward for the thought completion
good lord it looks awful, really very much Volkswagen shyte
