- Manager of Feature Content Carlos Lago tests the new 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S. Though it may not look all that different, this is indeed the next generation of Porsche's iconic sports car. What's new? It's slightly bigger, heavier, quicker and pricier. In this video, Carlos walks through the most significant changes inside and out. Later, he hops behind the wheel to see if this new version delivers the 911 driving experience that we adore.
Watch the 2020 Porsche 911Carrera S battle the 2019 BMW 8 Series (M850i):
• 2020 Porsche 911 vs. 2...
Q: What kind of engine and transmission does the Porsche 911 Carrera S have?
A: The 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S has a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six and an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
Q: How much does the 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S cost?
A: The 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S starts at $114,550, including destination. Pricing for the all-wheel-drive Carrera 4S model begins at $121,850.
Q: How fast is the 2020 Porsche 911 Carrera S?
A: Porsche says the new 911 reaches 60 mph in 3.3 seconds and clears the quarter-mile in 11.7 seconds for rear-wheel-drive models. Considering that the previous-generation 911 was quicker than that in our testing, we expect even better numbers when we get our hands on this 911 for a full test.
Q: What are the 2020 Porsche 911's main competitors?
A: There are quite a few options at this price. If you'd like a more comfort-oriented luxury coupe, consider the Lexus LC 500. For something along the same performance lines as the 911, there's the Audi R8 and the Mercedes-AMG GT.

I don't understand given Porsche's history why anyone would expect it do be not as good or better with the newer models? That should be a given.....it really should be about the changes and the improvements. We all know the Porsche's will always be very good.
The 996 was a disappointment after the 993 series, but since then they have always been better in the following generation
Yeah so don’t test it n just buy it? Lmao
Ibrahim B it wasn’t a dissapointemnt in terms of performance and tech, it’s just that a lot of things changed. Ugly af fried egg headlights, air-cooled to water-cooled...
@@ibrahimb6226 the 996 was a disappointment only to those who did not like the liquid cooled engines... I have a 996 and had a 993. Both are great cars and neither have been a disappointment to me.
다오 Still better looking than any Kia or Hyundai.
You are so pleasant to watch. Such a good presenter. Thank you.
Great job Carlos, always enjoy your reviews and content.
Great video, great to see Carlos! Excellent auto journalism.
Thanks!
Excellent review...great car..excellent insights from journalist...presented with a professionalism thats often missing in so many youtube shows thank you.
Driving review was excellent...interior review insightful as well. carlos rocks!
I was looking all over for you Carlos!!!! My Man!!!
finaly a good 992 review with a subtle way of using the b-roll not like other videos
very informative video. good job Carlitos!
Superb job of presenting the car!
Great job Carlos.
All hail Carlos. Please, please just do videos with him as the host. This made my weekend 😍😍
I love the instrument panel.
I love this car, nice video!
Forget about the petty look of the shifter. Fact is, this is THE BEST dual-clutch automatic transmission on Planet Earth! Stop the pettiness already. Porsche cars have always been controversial since the 356; they’re always doing things differently. That’s what helps make them great. I’ve ordered a Guards Red 992 which is scheduled to be in Kansas City September 1st. I guarantee I’ll get used to that shifter, post haste. FWIW, I just traded an 2016 Mercedes S550, and the shifter there is a tiny stalk on the right side of the steering wheel. Smaller than the turn signal, but boy...that thing works well also.
Thanks for a very detailed review...glad you compared the two generation of modelS 911s...because thats what manyof us want to hear. This new 911 is better because".....
Good job Carlos tks
Very thorough review here without any hyperbole or the need to play a character
Great review!! Does this drive better than the GT3 Touring you reviewed in terms of everyday drive, handling, and etc?
Excellent review, details, mixed with opinion and comparison v last gen. Well done. I have the last gen coming in this month and considered canceling for the new one, but don’t like the styling or the weight increase or the loss of practicality of the interior. Thanks Carlos for a thoughtful review!
Excellent review, one of the better ones I've seen from him! That Porsche looks amazing to me, and that color! What the hell is that color? I need that in my life!
Porsche calls the color Chalk
@@CarlosLago Perfection! thanks!
Like this color
Thank you; fine review. I'm still looking for the RPM shift points when using the boost button; I can hardly wait to reach 2,000 miles, i.e., the factory-recommended were-in distance before going over 5K rpm. - B.C. from Arizona
The tail lights went from eyebrows on fleek to a unibrow
Sounds like my neighbors wife. Like the 911 she keeps putting on weight as well.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂10/10
Love the styling , more sporty than ever. Not easy to work the lines, 992 looking great. 70' style horizontal dash is a surprise. The camera is foggy in parts Edmunds.
I forgot to clean the lens before turning the camera on
where r the Five-dial dashboard?
2:32 "beard shaver" LOL
Stunning car
Couldn’t be anybody else but Mr. Lago
LARLOS CAGO!!!!!!!!
In spanish the word "Cago" literally means "I shit"
@@Lianpe98 well I did just get out of the bathroom...
@@Vayetsii hahahahaha
Never liked Edmunds channel, but considering to subscribe just because Carlos is here.
love the new 992 design but absolutely hate the rear spoiler!! If Porsche would of used the new Panamera wing that would of been badass
Clean design. Sexy proportions. Nice interior.
This is a stellar looking 911! It’s bigger but who says something thats big with curves is a bad thing?? Great car, good power, HUGE price tag!
I love Porsche and I will have a Porsche 911 soon
What road are you driving, looks incredible.
I miss Carlos hes so good at what he does
Nice video, but you only showed the interior from the side or through closeups. Thankfully i've seen other videos and pictures and know how the central console looks like.
I like it overall. Interior is a big move up. Single biggest improvement outside or in, is the headlight assembly. The previous xenon or led looked clumsy.
golfbuddy1969 I think they improved it on the 991.2, with the four point drl’s.
I'll wait for the Turbo S 2022
I’m thinking about buying this car, it’s a little over my budget. I would just buy the regular 911 carerra but it dosent come in a Manuel and I find those much more fun to drive
I only clicked because of Carlos!
Can the autostop/start be defeated? IS a straight shift available?
Does anyone know if the interior sound of the 992 is “natural” or generated from the cabin speakers? It sounds strangely naturally aspirated, which is a good thing, but makes me wonder if it’s real.
I did not expect to see Carlos Lago when I clicked on this. How long has he been with Edmunds?
Porsche 911 + Carmine Red = ❤️
A decently spec'd 992 (without ceramic brakes) is about $145k. That's a heck of lot.
a
Damn Carlos, you was happy over at Motor Trend. Your production was top notch and your presentation was very professional.
What’s going on over at edmunds???? Now you look like you’re in the middle of a hangover. I need you back over at motortrend because those other 2 guys are quite simply annoying.
EVER Think you would be calling a Tach Needle GORGEOUS? HAHA What a Beauty.
I just got a 2019 992 S last month. I love it. Totally awesome
If this wasn't a Porsche, that shifter would have been slaughtered with criticism
But here's the Truth I hate the shifter it don't feels like a Porsche it does not look like a Porsche
Don't fix it if it's not broken
That media inference.... it don't belong on 911...
Looks better that way it’s 2019 it’s ugly but just a nice change
BUT!!! Check out the M = Manual button, where driver uses the shift paddles to choose shift points! - - Wonderful innovation.
Is this color Carrera White Metallic or the plain White?
How long has Carlos been at Edmunds? I had no idea.........
I haven't seen Carlos in a long time. This model is the 911 that i think is the best buy for the money as far as 911s go. Still very fast, almost Super Car fast and still can be taken on a road trip? What more do you want in a very fast and pure sports car?
what's this color called?
how about loud cabin noise?
Carlos, please do your own car reviews on your on UA-cam. Please.
WHAT AN INSANE CAR. Porsche pure perfection, a bargain at any price.
It will always be a look.🐸
Sub cuz of Carlos!
Chalk?
tell me what color this porsche has?
If Carlos wasn’t the review I would’ve immediately left he video.
Love the integration of the spoiler but the underside of it while it’s deployed is ugly
Selam olsun, Adama ve Kadına.
New one it is turbo dream from last gen, you have all wheel drive almosr 450 and 0-60 about 3.0, but you also get nice sound exhaust, modern look inside and outside, last tech etc...so i think it is hit! This car will kill 991 turbo lines. What sense to buy used turbo over this?)
You're really just guessing
@@Alby911 sure, like all of us. What you would rather 991.2 turbo or new 992 4s for same price? And why?
Roman Teslya the ‘turbo’ is still faster FYI, and prob better brakes
@@HeyhitmeBAM but this one not to much slow and having rear wheel drive which more fun, also better sound... and better almost everything...
Why is Ben affleck reporting on cars?
Harika.
The shifter reminds me of my Remington Foil Shaver haha
Beautiful car, just not sure I would spend $150k for it when a C63s is $90k and an M4 is $85k.
you are no talking about the same type of car and also the look of these 2 have nothing to do with a 911 look!
@@ross9581 Explain to me what you think makes them different from each other? All three are high performance 2+2 sport coupes, with similar size, driving dynamics, and performance.
@@christophergresco9677 Well, both are real 4 seaters and the 992 is a true sport car, in look and in dynamics to copy your words.
In mainly most road tests neither can achieve the capabilities of the 992, not to mention resale value which is another subject.
You Can get a New one from the Porsche dealer in San Antonio Texas for $130K and that's the model I Would buy basic and still 443 Horsepower !!! Lol
Norelco designed the interior.
Title says the S, and the car reviewed is the 4S?
I like the 991.2 GTS's looks more, can't wait to see the other models come out over the next few years! I wonder if the GTS will have its usual engine HP increase between the S and GT series cars or, if it will have the electric motors as its form of power increase.
For a fanboy you know nothing about them.
@@992turbos8 What don't I know about them? I own a Cayman GTS as I think it is a better pure sports car but would certainly think about buying a 911 GTS. What am I missing?
I’ll take the base model. What dentist needs launch control ?
Clargo!!!
That "shifter" looks ugly, but that's just my opinion.
The center console looks very wide, doesn't it interfere with the width of the foot well?
What kind of review doesn't mention a horsepower & torque rating?
not necessary ...its fast
Other reviews have mentioned 440, or 444 @ 5000 RPM. I think they said somewhere in the mid to high three hundred pounds of torque starting @ low RPMs flat up to high RPMs.
HP and HP/rpm numbers are trivial. You know that it is more than fast enough. How about reliability and cost of ownership ratings?
Michael Marks Don’t get too tied up with mere numbers (443 hp), and torque. There have been so many other changes, such as a whole new PDK, restructuring the gearing ratios, much wider tires, lower stance, wider spacing of wheels, larger wing for more downforce.. I can tell you that this car is “really” special!
I don't like the taillight bat, it looks soft And instead of reducing weight it became heavier ???
I am so glad Porsche has avoided the ridiculous trend of interiors that look like iPads have been bolted everywhere. Porsche interiors are still thoughtful, useful, and timeless - even with a lot of tech.
Yaaaaaawn.
The key on the left is only on left hand drive cars. All right hand drive cars have the key in the right. You’d be accurate if you said the key is always on the opposite side to the gearshifter.
The key is always on the door side which is pretty normal on right hand drive cars but abnormal on left hand drive cars.
@@farzana6676 In the old days during porsche's Le Mans racing program, they strategically placed the keys on the left because when the race starts (and drivers had to run to their cars, jump inside and switch the car on), they could save a second or two by switching the engine on with the left hand and slotting the gear lever in place with their right hand at the same time instead of transitioning.
kolokolok 2016 Yeah I think everyone knows this.
❤️
Looks good, but excites me more knowing the 991s will start dropping to a reasonable prices. 991 C4GTS under $100k = perfection
Jamie Potter Actually, I doubt it; but I hope so.
Only thing i don't like is the stupid full length brake light.
Ruben same. I was hoping it would grow on me but I don’t think it will
Guys still got his hospital tag on
That's exactly what i wss thinking. Was he sick?
Optional proximity key... why would that not be standard 😑
Aaron Goodchild does Porsche give anything for free? Gotta milkkkk that cash
That's the carrera S Vesion, Kinmd of an entry level of 911's range. the 4s or the top models will probably have it.
Cos it’s a Porsche! I’m amazed the car comes as standard with wheels and an engine. Surprised they aren’t optional extras. 🤣😂
Go on the Porsche configurator, try not to cry when you spec your perfect Porsche! My favourite manufacturer but the fact that something like keyless entry/reversing cameras are optional extras on a premium car really is outrageous
you missed the point, a Suzuki Ignis GLX has keyless entry and start.... can be had for around $18k. even the base model Porsche is over $200,000@@bernardoaugusto7309
I hate the shifter the 991 shifter is better dot fix it if it's not broken
Carerra 3.3 😍 so how much is the turbo and turbo s ???
992 is $8200 more! It better drive a lot better for that increase in price!
Porsche says the price increase was due to the additional standard features (PDK, heated seats, auto dimming mirrors, etc etc)
I test drove 911 twice...but did not like it at all. Felt like I was driving a 40k Mazda. Is there something wrong with me? Or is it a matter of personal preference?
You're not crazy if you are referring to the interior design. the interior on a base cayman/boxster is very similar to the interior on a loaded Turbo S … the styling inside isn't meant to "wow" you or be the focal point, or at least I hope not. My wife was pretty disappointed when I had her peek inside a $200k USD Turbo S. They're quite plain but they are well constructed with good materials. For their price, Mazda actually does make a good interior, haha. If you think the driving experience is the same as a Mazda anything, then yeah, you probably need to get a spinal tap bc I think you're pretty sick in the head. ;)
haha. okay that means I need to go see my neurologist..haha. but guess what? I met so many people who never liked the 911. I meant the driving experience, not the interior. I may get the new Macan S though! @@evanescent0311
guys IS IT A 4 SEATER
Good video. But the audio could be improved.
Is it a sports car? Or a luxury GT car? The 718 is much cheaper, has a true two seater format, and the engine is in the middle. Plus it's 280 KGS lighter than a 911.
Larlos!
I'm not *CRAZY* about the new front end look.
If it had a better looking front end then I *MIGHT* just put it on my UA-cam channel 😎💃💃
Mechanical door handles are the way to go.
baby carlos!😍💋
The gauge cluster is terrible i mean it looks like they ran out of gusto and said hey just use some boring shyt that works.
Not a fan of the shifter. Or the front on the back for 911.
Not sure why so many complain about the shifter, it’s an automatic, you’ll barely be touching it anyway.
Plus now it doesn’t block the view of the center console like the last gen did.
@@LegendInThaMakin
the gear shifter looks sissy
the first thing you drive a car is to use the gear shifter
it's the soul for human to control the car
and it helps in/out corners besides the paddles
that's why so many people complains about it
actually i think it's also a very important decoration for the interior too...
Aasa C it’s an automatic, it’s already sissy.
Don’t see how the shape of the gear shifter means anything. You’ll mostly be using the paddles anyway.
People just look for the littlest things to cry about.
Edward Snowden I never said I hated autos. God you auto apologists are so sensitive. All I said was I don’t see how it matters what the gear lever for an automatic is shaped as seeing as you rarely touch it anyway.
That is literally my only point.
The only Porsche pdk shifter blocked the view of the console. None of you internet racers have ever been in a high end Porsche anyway so I don’t even expect y’all to know that. They made the 992 shifter smaller for a reason.
Edward Snowden so you’re gonna get emotional with me just cuz I called the auto sissy? 😒
I would spend a little more $$ to make the plasticky front end a bit more pleasing. But save money and opt out on Sport Exhaust..that's so ugly. I'd still get the same sound over 3,000rpm anyways
Disagree on your cupholder comments. It was placed perfect and easy to reach in the 991, sad to see it go.
vuggie123 The two new cup holders are deeper, more solid and rigid, and work perfectly. The console cup can be lifted out and another part slides into the void for carrying change, cell phone, etc.
