The Porsche 911 Carrera T has followed its siblings by being updated to the new 992.2 generation, going manual-only and offering the choice of a soft-top convertible for the first time.
Unveiled overnight, the upgraded 911 Carrera T has dropped its automatic transmission, picked up a Cabriolet body option, and gained power compared to its predecessor.
Porsche Cars Australia has confirmed the 911 Carrera T is due in local showrooms early in the second quarter of 2025 (April to June), following the release of the standard Carrera and Carrera GTS in the first quarter (January to March).
In Australia, prices will start from $306,800 before on-road costs for the 911 Carrera T Coupe (up $7600 on its 992.1 predecessor), and $330,100 before on-road costs for the Cabriolet – both representing a $26,300 premium compared to the base Carrera.

The 911 Carrera T retains its twin-turbo 3.0-litre flat-six engine, which has received a 7kW power bump to now produce 290kW. Torque is unchanged at 450Nm.
Drive is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission, with the pre-update model’s seven-speed manual and eight-speed ‘PDK’ dual-clutch automatic no longer on offer.
All examples of the Carrera T feature rev-matching for downchanges, as well as the Sport Chrono Package as standard.
Coupe variants accelerate from 0-100km/h in a claimed 4.5 seconds, while the Cabriolet is two-tenths slower, completing the sprint in 4.7 seconds. Top speeds are listed at 295km/h and 293km/h, respectively.
To accommodate the power increase, Porsche has beefed up the 911 Carrera T’s brake rotors, now measuring 350mm in diameter (up 20mm), while the front calipers have increased by two pistons to become six-pots.
In a bid to further improve its cornering performance, the 911 Carrera T is now fitted with rear-axle steering for the first time, providing not only greater agility but better stability.
Compared to the base 911 Carrera, the T sits 10mm lower on its adaptive sports suspension, with its guards filled by 20-inch wheels at the front and 21-inch alloys at the rear.
On top of the standard model, 911 Carrera Ts gain a number of unique additions, such as a rear-quarter window sticker with its six-speed H-pattern shift layout, Vanadium Grey badges, rear grille inlays, mirror trims and wheels.
Porsche offers four exterior colour schemes for the 911 Carrera T, in addition to its Paint to Sample and Paint to Sample Plus programs. These include:
- Legends: Shade Green Metallic, Crayon, and Slate Grey Neo
- Dreams: Guards Red, Lugano Blue, Gentian Blue Metallic and Cartagena Yellow Metallic
- Shades: Muted Jet Black Metallic, GT Silver Metallic and Ice Grey Metallic
- Contrasts: Black and White
If you order a Cabriolet, its soft-top can be had in black, red, blue or brown.
Inside, there’s a handful of features you won’t find in any other 992.2-series 911, such as a open-pore walnut laminated wood gear knob, an ‘MT’ badge ahead of the gear lever, and the shift pattern logo on the passenger-side dashboard.
Standard features include the Sport Chrono Package’s centrally mounted stopwatch, a leather-wrapped and heated GT sports wheel (Race-Tex is available as an option), four-way power-adjustable front seats with Sport-Tex centres and tartan trim, plus Vanadium Grey inlays.
Comfort access, a Bose surround sound system, digital radio, surround view camera (with active parking support), and lane change assist will also be standard on Australian examples.
Buyers can also opt for the Carrera T-specific design packages.
The Gentian Blue package features the rear inlays, Carrera T decals, MT stickers, and light-alloy wheels in this colour, along with black upper mirror shells.
Inside, there’s blue seat contrast stitching and stripes, seat belts, centre console and door panel trim, and 911 head restraint logos.
