Porsche 911 Turbo S 2021 review - see how quick it REALLY is to 60mph!
The time has finally come for Mat to review the all-new Porsche 911 Turbo S! Not only is it the most expensive 911 EVER, but Porsche also claims it’s the fastest - hitting 0-60mph in just 2.6 seconds! But can it actually hit that ridiculously quick time, and is it worth the ludicrous £156,000 starting price?! Stick with us as Mat puts this new Turbo S through its paces!

**DRAG RACE IDEA** - get the last 3 or 4 generations of Turbo S together!. That way we can see the performance changes over time!
Great idea
Please do this mat! 😂😂😂

Very large brain.
The turbo s was introduced 2 generations ago. This would be impossible.
The C-A-T system is one hell of a breakthrough in modern cars technology
What are your views on the D-O-G system?
RMH Z lmfao
@@rmhz6815 i'm probably sounds a little racist, but there's a D-O-G system called German shepherd that would make a nice addition for this car instead of Mexican Cihuahua.
been around for years my dad found the C-A-T system in the car all the time especially when he left the sunroof open. went to work with him a few times lol
What’s a CAT system
The C.A.T. System also ensures that even in a multiple roll-over, flip, etc, the 911 always lands right-side-up.
Clever
Good one😂😂
So you can I'd the victim if you crash. But I love it .
*If there ever was such a thing as a “sleeper supercar” this would be it.*
Problem is its so iconic already it can't really he a sleeper
Na
Opposite of a sleeper imo
lmao, the 911 badge is legendary. Far from 'sleeper'.
Sleeper ? Hahah that was funny
The main problem with this car is the fact I can’t afford it
Haha i feel your pain.
@sanju2 No shit, Sherlock
That is where the C8 Z06 comes in.
I cant afford new polo
That's quite an issue
Porche's launch control blows my mind over and over everytime I see it.
I love how the GT2RS launches smoothly despite being Rear wheel drive
The handling blows my mind. A car with the engine over the rear axle shouldnt be able to do what a Porsche does. Defies physics
daisy180709 porsche has perfected the setup and they deserve every success that comes their way
Launch Control gonna keep blowing your mind till it starts getting error issues 😂👌
Can’t get enough

There is no best in my view.Mr Jww,Doug Demuro,Henry Catchpole,Jeremy Clarkson,Hugo Bovington are just a few at the pinnacle of motor reviewing.Matt's in that elite group,especially if you like a bit of comedy thrown in.

Right when you thought it couldnt be quicker from 0-60 than the previous generation, the 992 comes along😎
720s pulls up
Eddy mmm I think the 911 is faster
@@ItumelengS The Turbo S is definitely faster 0-60 than the 720S, quarter mile should be interesting though
Curious about this vs the new 765LT
Arjan im guessing the turbo S will beat it to 100 mph and after that the 765lt comes sailing past
I love how he does the launches and stuff straight away sometimes cause it’s whatever he wants to do - he doesn’t tease us and leave it till right the end so we have to watch the whole video
I'm always amazed how incredible this car looks live vs in photos and videos. People say that the designers creating the next gen 911 have the easiest and the hardest job in the industry. They have to keep the iconic look of the car and in the same time make it new and fresh. They've done it again cause this last gen is a stunner.. I got a feeling that a Taycan will have a similar impact on the EV car market.. It's different but also iconic and reminiscent of the 911. The new Taycan sport wagon (I don't know what they'll call it but it looks like a wagon), is incredible.
2.55 is really fast on an unprepped surface
@@bobbydyk9089 imagine some guys gives it 800 hp 😲

I was felt pretty young when my dad had a 2017 one so I didn’t know very much about the car more than it was one of the fastest street legal cars. But this brings back some memories for sure.
The performance and design of this car excited me. Especially, A line flowing from the c pillar to the rear of the vehicle exceeded beauty. It also has excellent performance. This car is perfect.
This must go against the 720s in upcoming drag races on this channel
The Porsche will smash it literally
@@konstantinoszabelakis1215 Will see
Konstantinos Zabelakis just remember it’s obvious the 720s is pushing more than 710hp. It’s more around 760-770hp
EXTaviation quite a few manufacturers do it now. The figure they quote is at the wheel. So you need to add at least 10%. The new bmw m5 is closer to 700 when measured correctly
This must go against EVERYTHING. 😂
The fact that it is faster than a performante and it has such a nice interior makes it probably close enough to the perfect car tbh
Couldn't word it any better 😍
I would still take Huracan for the glorious NA V10 engine.
@@TheEryk03 nah, the N/A V12's were the only good engines.
@@asifnoaman8978 you must be utter moron if you think that V10s are not good.
But it’s just a 911, fantastic car, but hard to get excited about, an entry level carrera as an everyday sports car makes more sense and then have something a bit more interesting for the weekend.

The funniest part of the review is the CAT system 😂😂😂
Surprised it's not the PCAT system seeing how Porsche loves to put Porsche in front of everything.

I once used launch control in my uncle’s rwd 991 carrera S. That felt absolutely brutal - faster than any roller coaster I’ve been on - and it did 0-60 in 3.7 sec. I cant even imagine how 2.5 sec must feel...
@B 🤣🤣🤣
Whatever it takes, i'll get my own turbo s
Love it. You get the performance of the supercars but a much more beautiful, symmetrical design. It's classy and gorgeous. Not gaudy or like it belongs it belongs in space. I love 2 door coupes and this has to be the easiest on the eyes I've ever seen.
8:23 and thats the moment stepbro walks in
WhAt are yOu DoInG sTepBRo?!?!
"What are ya doin stepbra?"
2:05 THAT IS INSANE, 2.5 SECONDS !!!
Porsche always understates their numbers so someone might beat it.The 918 Porsche claimed 2.4 to 60,but Car and Driver got 2.2
@@chrisanderson2204 yeah another example is the 911 Carrera s, they say 3,7 (0-100kph) but if there is only one person in the car and the tank is a bit empty, you can do a 3,35s. That's Porsche😂👌💪
@@chrisanderson2204 That's cause all the magazines don't measure 0-60 fully. They only start timing after the first 12 inches of distance, which is why the magazines like Car and Driver or MotorTrend get 0-60 0.1/0.2 of a second quicker than the actual time.
exactly, especially when you consider that the 918 spyder, an 800,000 hypercar, accelerates in just 2.4 seconds
4:05 Wait, is that a mechanical click I hear?? Nah, I bet it comes from the speakers... Music to my ears anyways.
At 4:50, less than halfway through the video, my guy here earned the sub! Never seen anybody explain suspension stiffness quite like you! Lol! Well done sir! 👏
When he said "road noise" and "Wind Noise" i'm sure someone was fired
The Road and the Wind noises are simulated by the speakers to make it more realistic
911s always had alot of wind/road noise
EU regulators should be...
I don't mind road noise in this car, due to its massive tires. That wind noise...hmm, still don't mind it, consider it could go past 320kph.
Hans was fired yesterday.
The perfect car in my opinion
Agreed. It ticks all the boxes.
All is missing is an exhaust... Imagine giving it one...
@KZhead TM yes, I've heard the tubi tune on this and crap it was glorious
Truly is
Yup.
Dont know why ive never seen your channel before. This is really good content, presented with a brilliant personality. You earned a new sub :D
When I first saw this car in the flesh, I stood and admired it with my jaw dropped open for what felt like forever. Porsche makes the most stunning cars.
no they don't. the newer ones make the older ones look like trash... i'll give them that.

@@mq1405 The rear of the current Turbo S looks better than the rear of the current Carrera to me.
4:55....Mat in beast mode......respect##..my favorite motoring journalist
What a freaking masterpiece...and the CAT system that comes with it is just magnificent!
The surface where he does the acceleration and brake test is really dirty with lots of gravel. I bet the time and distance would be better on a cleaner surface.
How about a cleaned strip with warmed up tires with donuts
I recon if the tyres are warm and the surface was cleaner it could do it in 2.4 to 2.3 seconds
I think high 2.4
Imaging Drag Times making a video in the Drag strip
2.4 is definitely possible on a nice clean track/road.
Definitely worth investing in the CAT system!! Rats chewed through the wires in my car last week.

DuGong your insane🤣🤣
@@DuGongggg you're a moron lol. 720s is RWD and on street tires pulls under 2.3 seconds 0-60 and runs the 1/4 almost full second faster stock... And its 2 yrs older technology.
Since it’s still around 80 bhp down and heavier than the Mc laren I think it’d lose a drag race. I’d take this Porsche over the Mclaren anyday. Real world performance on a public road can’t see anything beating this.
You could totally revive "Top Gear" you should put yourself forward to present the program 😀.

*wide putin walking in*
I’m drooling.this has always been my favourite, 911 variant.
Unpopular opinion: 992 Turbo S is an absolute sleeper. Sure the average person would think it has some speed. But most would think a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, Ferrari 812 Superfast, Tesla Model S Performance (P100D), etc would have a faster quarter mile time than it. But the new Turbo S handily spanks them all. 2.5 Seconds to 60 and a 10.2 Second 1/4 mile. Not many stock cars that are quicker than that.

I could sense the sheer joy the presenter felt while driving this stunning and remarkable machine. And even though he's a bit silly at times his humor was a hit and I even chuckled a few times. "Germans have a habit of rounding everything up" referring to the size of the engine. This could be correct overall, I don't know for sure but the creators of Porsche cars have a habit of rounding down when measuring actual engine performance as was mentioned early in this video. Great review ! Cheers
Such a brilliant and thorough review and so funny about the cat.... well done 😂❤
Less than 2.6 seconds to 60, with the stability control cutting in! I'd love to see how quick it is on a nice, clean track.

Until its done in only one way of the road its not official . Its suspicious how every car he tests there on that direction is faster by 0.5 sec to 2.0 sec faster than the manufactuers said

Sarkozy you need proof of sufficient funds they don’t let jonny from the local take a 911 for a spin.
Fabian Reah I’m pretty sure people who buy this car already have enough sufficient funds to pay it all fully instead of a $15000 down payment lol
@Sarkozy Tesla is the only carmaker I know that gives test-drives to anyone. Everyone else wants to see intent to buy, or in case of the good Porsches proof of funds to buy. Tesla on the other hand was willing to give me a p100d to test drive, after I said that I am from Europe (it was in the US), from a country they don't cover, and there is no chance I will be buying the car since it is too expensive for me. But I am a fan and I want to live the experience. *And they said ok* only problem was I had a European driving a license that they figured out a day before that when they requested a scan... So they offered me to drive me around in the car instead. (Of course my luck is shit and sth important came up and had to cancel 2 hours before the ride...). Oh and I was under 25 back then... (On the other hand, in a Porsche showroom I was told to not sit in one of the cars because its their most premium vehicle. But I could sit in a Cayman or a cayenne... The car was a 911 ffs
The shot at 7:22 is damn impressive - almost as impressive as this beast of a car.
