There\u2019s a 3.6-litre flat-six, an electric motor in the transmission and an electric motor on the turbo. The last of those is the bit worth dwelling on: it can spin up the turbo before the exhaust has built enough energy to do it by itself.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/6\/6e\/2022_Porsche_911_992_Carrera_GTS.jpg\" alt=\"Earlier 992 Carrera GTS, before the T-Hybrid update\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" \/><figcaption>Earlier 992 Carrera GTS, before the T-Hybrid update. <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:2022_Porsche_911_992_Carrera_GTS.jpg\">Calreyn88 \/ Wikimedia Commons<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/4.0\/\">CC BY-SA 4.0<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>You don\u2019t need a launch-control run to see why that matters.
