Porsche 992 interior revealed

Total 911’s spies capture inside of next-generation 911 for first time

-

The cabin of Porsche’s next-generation 911, the 992, has been uncovered for the first time after Total 911’s spies were able to get up close to a test mule. As you can see, the inside of the 992, set for launch at the Paris Motor Show in October, has been completely reworked with what could be argued as an even greater lean towards comfortabl­e GT driving over focused sports car driving.

The screen in the centre of the dashboard is now much bigger, in line with the 911’s Panamera cousin, while the centre console beneath it appears to be wider, too. PASM and PSM buttons have been relocated up from the centre console on to a small panel beneath the dashboard screen, though the biggest and most radical changes have taken place in front of the driver’s seat.

The 911’s iconic five dials, in existence since the first 911 of 1963, have been disbanded in favour of a digital screen either side of an analogue tachometer. In front sits a three-spoke, multi-function wheel that’s been redesigned despite retaining the ‘Mode’ wheel introduced for the 991.2 generation. Despite a scrapping of the 911’s five dials, traditiona­lists will be enthused by the presence of a manual shifter.
