21 Jul 2024|337 views
Porsche has enthralled visitors to the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed.
The festival played host to the public debut of the firm's new 911 Carrera GTS. Equipped with a new motorsport-inspired drivetrain featuring an electric turbo and electric motor it was a natural fit to the event's 'Horseless to Hybrid - Revolutions in Power' theme for this year.
The festival also saw the all-electric Macan Turbo, new Cayenne GTS and the Taycan Turbo GT making their U.K. debuts, whiles those who prefer a more analogue Porsche experience also got to view the naturally aspirated 911 S/T - which comes equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox - as it made its Goodwood debut.
Among the Porsche racing cars that took on Goodwood’s famous hill climb were the 992-generation 911 GT3 Cup Car, driven by Porsche GB Junior James Wallis, while Porsche test driver and Nurburgring specialist Lars Kern flew the flag for Porsche's road cars aboard the Taycan Turbo GT. All Porsche cars on the Hill at Goodwood were using eFuels, which are synthetic fuels produced in a virtually carbon-neutral manner.
Porsche's Heritage and Museum team also took a total of six historic and four current Turbo models to the event, including a 911 Turbo 3.3 Coupe from 1988, 911 Turbos from the 993 and 996 generations, and a Cayenne Turbo.
A 'Camp Cayenne' at the festival also provided an outdoor-themed celebration of Porsche's pivotal luxury SUV, alongside its all-terrain siblings including the Macan and the 911 Dakar. Each day of the festival also witnessed a changing on-site display of about 250 cars owned by members of the Porsche Club of Great Britain.
