Model designations
The “4” in the model designation stands for models with all-wheel drive.
The letter T stands for “Touring” and describes models that offer a particularly purist driving experience with reduced but particularly sporty equipment.
At Porsche, S stands for “Sport”: a more powerful version which, in addition to the extra sporty engine, also includes improvements in equipment compared to the basic model.
GTS stands for “Gran Turismo Sport” and is a further upgrade of the S models with even more power and extended equipment.
A turbo is the top model, the limit of what is possible, a technological pioneer. The fully electric Taycan and Macan in particular show that the type designation is no longer tied to the use of an exhaust turbocharger. Turbo does not stand for a technology here, but rather identifies the most powerful variants.
GT stands for “Gran Turismo” and refers to the extremely sporty version of the base model, built for motorsport and approved for road use. The name is derived from the GT class of the same name.
Stands for racing and characterizes the further enhanced versions of the GT models - the maximum of racing that is possible with road approval.
If you choose a new model within the same model series, most of the equipment in your current configuration can be transferred to the new model. In some cases, equipment is only available for certain models and may therefore not be adopted for the new model.
