The German supercar maker has not released any information on the specifications and the figures that the new 911 will reach and if at all leave its staunch rivals behind. The only bit of information that one can be sure of is that the 911 will be a rear engine offering and will be turbocharged. It is being said that the turbocharger will be a heavily revised version of that offered in 385PS 911 Carrera and 450PS Carrera 4S. The 7-speed DCT might be succeeded by an 8-speed DCT. While the purists can look forward to the 7-speed manual transmission that too will be revised.
