Tested: 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S Lightweight is a near-hypercar:
LOWS: The carbon-fiber buckets aren't for all body types, going this fast is never cheap.
It's not just how the Turbo S turns its available horsepower into straight-line speed that nudges it into the hypercar realm, but how it drives. Ascending Angeles Crest Highway, outside of Los Angeles, consists of 66 miles of squiggles and switchbacks linked by short straights that the Turbo S evaporates. The hundreds of corners stack on each other like Las Vegas cards in a shoe, with the 16.
Taking a breather from sawing at the wheel provides time to reflect on the climb up and over the San Gabriel Mountains. At the 7903-foot summit, the Turbo S's twin altitude compensators keep the engine at full tilt, whereas the 911 GT3's naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six would likely gasp for oxygen.
At $215,190, a Turbo S with the Lightweight package isn't cheap, but in the world of sub-10-second machines, it's a relative bargain. With everyday usability, blistering speed, and exemplary handling, this Turbo S is a hypercar hiding in plain sight.This content is created and maintained by a third party, and imported onto this page to help users provide their email addresses.
