Porsche has officially announced the reintroduction of a 6-speed manual transmission for the 911th Carrera S. The newly unveiled model, exclusively offered in North America as the '911 Carrera S with MT Package,' expands the 992.2 generation Carrera S lineup, which was previously dominated by an 8-speed PDK automatic transmission.

For Porsche enthusiasts in North America, the combination of three pedals and a 6-speed manual transmission has long been the most definitive symbol of the Porsche brand identity. The new Carrera S MT Package will be available in both coupe and cabriolet body styles. Porsche's manual transmission versions emphasize analog driving feel and lightweight construction, embodying the classic rear-wheel-drive configuration characteristic of the brand. Equipped with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine, it delivers a maximum output of 473 horsepower and peak torque. The coupe model weighs 1,509 kg, differing by only about 5 kg from the lightweight Carrera T coupe.

Seventeen exterior color options and over 70 interior leather choices are available, along with various bespoke customization options such as exclusive flade seat textiles. Buyers can also select a dedicated package for features including headlight finishes and wheel trims.

The 911 Carrera S MT Package comes standard with center-lock wheels, which are more than 17 pounds lighter than conventional wheels. Standard equipment also includes a PASM sports suspension with a 10 mm lower ride height, rear-axle steering, a walnut shift knob, the Sports Chrono package, and exclusive exhaust tuning. The braking system combines cast iron discs measuring 408 mm at the front and 380 mm at the rear with high-performance calipers. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) and carbon-fiber bucket seats are available as optional extras.

The new Carrera S MT Package will launch first in North America, responding to persistent demand from North American customers. With this model release, Porsche has completed its lineup of seven manual transmission variants across the 911th LINE series in the North American market.
