The standard 911 T features a seven-speed manual gearbox, an eight-speed PDK is also available, front seats only and a PASM sport suspension with 10 mm lowering and reduced insulation. The sound of the six-cylinder boxer engine is now an even more striking presence in the interior, you can feel it and hear it on winding mountain and country roads.

The 911 Carrera T is the lightest series 911 with the entry-level engine, the model weighs 1470 kgs which is 35 kgs lighter than the 911 Carrera with a standard eight-speed PDK.
