991.2 GT3 drops camo

Test mules reveal new rear wing design

Porsche has stepped up final testing of its incoming 992 GT3 after a series of test mules were spotted largely without camo for the first time. Total 911’s spies captured the moment during some fast laps at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, where an all-new rear wing design can be seen for the first time.

The visible ‘swan neck’ design of the adjustable wing’s uprights has been borrowed from Porsche’s latest 911

RSR factory race car, while beneath it, a prominent ducktail-style lip also aids downforce. The GT3’S customary twin centre-exit exhaust is now flanked by a much larger diffuser on the 992. At the front of the mules, a new twin-hood vent design appears to be a ruse, as the GT3’S familiar single vent can be seen beneath the suspicious new panel. However, a revised front PU with a much larger centre section compared to the outgoing 991.2 appears genuine.

Porsche’s new GT3 will once again feature a naturally aspirated flat six engine, confirmed by our spies thanks to the recognisable banshee wail of the mules testing here. Its 4.0-litre engine is expected to put out around 550hp and is likely to be paired with a PDK or optional manual transmission.
