Porsche presents the new GT3 in conjunction with the Changi Airport Race

The new GT3 road car exhibits impressive performance both on the roads and also on the race track, offering drivers higher standards in vehicular performance.

Equipped with a 3.8-litre six-cylinder naturally-aspirated power unit that develops a maximum output of 435bhp, the new GT3's performance out-performs its predecessors with an increase of 200cc and 20bhp. With this upgraded power and performance, the boxer engine also offers a significant increase in torque at medium engine speeds, a benefit of particular significance when the GT3 is used for everyday motoring.

The new GT3 accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in a mere 4.1 seconds and reaches 160 km/h in 8.2 seconds. The top speed the GT3 road car can reach is 312 km/h.

New enhancements incorporated into the new GT3 to enhance its driving dynamics and handling capabilities include revision made to the existing GT3's aerodynamics to increase down-forces to both the front and rear of the car, and improving the overall brake system under the acclaimed Porsche Active Suspension Management.

These enhancements offer drivers a better grip and stability to handle the improved performance of the new GT3.

The new GT3 also comes with a sporting variant of the Porsche Stability Management (PSM), which provides drivers with the option of deactivating both Stability Control (SC) and Traction Control (TC), giving the driver unrestricted, individual control over the driving dynamics of the GT3.

The price for the new GT3 starts from SGD 508,888 and is inclusive of a 5-year free maintenance and warranty program, road tax, COE and GST. (Price is subject to change without prior notice.)
