Everything You Need To Know To Understand 
The Porsche 911 Model Range
关于保时捷911系列你所需要了解的一切

Have you ever looked at the entire Porsche 911 lineup? It's like trying to order food off the menu at the world's greatest diner. There are a million good choices, but you still don't know what to get. Porsche currently sells 24 distinct variations of the 911 – we know, we checked. The 911 ranges from around $91,000 on the low end to around $293,000 on the high end, so understanding the lineup can make a big difference. The current 991 generation car will be replaced later this year by an all-new 992 generation, but before it does we wanted to help break down Porsche's dizzying array of 911 models. Here's everything you need to know to decipher today's 911 lineup.
 你看过整个保时捷911系列吗?这就像是在世界上最棒的餐厅里试图从菜单上点餐一样。有成千上万的很好的选择,但你仍然不知道该怎么下手。保时捷目前销售24种不同的911车型 - 这个我们知道,我们查过。911的价格从低端的9.1万美元到高端的29.3万美元不等,所以了解它的整个系列会有很大的不同。目前的991代汽车将在今年晚些时候被全新的992代所取代,但在此之前,我们想帮助大家分解令人眼花缭乱的911系列车型。这里有你需要知道的一切来破译目前的911系列的秘密。
 
The Bodystyles
车身风格
The first thing you should know about the 911 is that it is available in three different body styles: Coupe, Cabriolet, and Targa. Most of the specialty models are only available as coupes, but we'll get to that later on. A coupe is exactly what you would expect - a fixed roof with no hidden tricks. The cabriolet is also pretty self-explanatory with a droptop that retracts without taking up any trunk space (because the trunk is up front).
关于911,首先你应该知道它有三种不同的车身类型:Coupe、Cabriolet和Targa。大多数专业车型只提供跑车,但我们稍后会谈到这一点。一辆轿跑车正是你所期待的 - 一个固定的车顶没有隐藏的机关。敞篷车也是一目了然,它有一个升降机,收回车顶时不占用后备箱任何空间(因为后备箱在前面)。
 
The Targa is a bit trickier to explain because it has changed from generation to generation. A Targa is a semi-convertible car with a removable roof section with a full-width roll bar behind the seats. Some 911 Targa generations, like the 993, simply had a sliding glass roof instead of a simple removable one. The current 991 generation uses a complicated power system to remove a section of the roof and store it behind the seats. Why get a Targa over a cabriolet? Because it looks cool and is far less common.
塔尔加的解释有点难,因为它已经更改了一代又一代了。Targa是一款半敞篷车,车顶部分可拆卸,座椅后面有一个车顶等宽滚动杆。一些911 Targa系列款式,如993,仅仅有一个滑动玻璃车顶,替代简单的可拆卸车顶。当前的991使用复杂的动力系统来拆卸一部分车顶并将其藏在座椅后面。为什么在敞篷车之外还生产Targa?因为它看起来很酷而且不太常见。

Carrera, Carrera S, and Carrera GTS
卡雷拉,卡雷拉S,以及卡雷拉GTS
Things get a bit complicated with the Carrera models, which can also be ordered in S or GTS power levels, and as coupes and cabriolets. Each comes standard with rear-wheel drive, and models with a '4' in their name have all-wheel drive. You can also distinguish a 4 model by its wider hips and taillight bar across the rear. RWD and AWD can be combined with all Carrera trim levels, except for the specialty Carrera T (see below). Targas are treated as separate models and can only be ordered with AWD.
卡雷拉车型的情况变得有点复杂,这款车也能订购S或GTS动力级别的车型,以及轿跑车和敞篷车的车型。它们每一款都是后轮驱动的标准配置,而以“4”命名的车型则采用四轮驱动。你也可以通过它更宽的臀部和尾部的尾灯条来区分四轮驱动车型。后轮驱动和全轮驱动可以与所有的卡雷拉内饰级别组合,除了特别的卡雷拉T版车(见下文)。Targas被视为单独的型号,只能订购四轮驱动款。
 
The base Carrera is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six producing 370 horsepower. The Carrera S brings the power up to 420 hp and the GTS to 450 hp. All of these 911s can be ordered with a seven-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed PDK dual-clutch. The manual is more fun, but the PDK is quicker.
卡雷拉基本款装备一个3.0升双涡轮平置六缸引擎,能产生370马力。卡雷拉S将功率提升至420马力,GTS提升至450马力。所有这些911都可订购七速手动变速箱或七速PDK双离合自动变速箱。手动更有趣,但PDK更快。
 

Carrera T
Porsche loves special lightweight editions, but these are typically reserved for the higher priced models in the 911 range. The Carrera T takes a base Carrera and strips as much weight as possible out of it to create the purest driving experience possible. Power is the same as a base Carrera at 370 hp, but this specialty model certainly feels more special to drive. This is the 911 to buy if you would like to be a bit more unique than the other lawyers in the office but don't want to spend the cash on one of the more expensive models.
保时捷喜欢特别的轻量化的款式,但这些版本通常是为911系列中价格较高的车型保留的。卡雷拉T采用了一个基本款的卡雷拉,并砍掉尽可能多的重量,以创造最纯粹的驾驶体验。它的动力与370马力的基本款卡雷拉相同,但这款特别车型在驾驶时肯定感觉更特别。如果你想比办公室里的其他律师更独特一点,但又不想把钱花在更昂贵的车型上,那就买这辆911吧。
 
Turbo and Turbo S
In the world of 911s, the Turbo has always been the ultimate speed machine. The 911 Turbo has been overlooked in recent years as variants like the GT3 and GT2 RS have taken over the spotlight because of their exclusivity and staggering performance. The Turbo name also makes a bit less sense now that all 911 models, besides the GT3, are turbocharged. All 911 Turbos come with AWD and PDK, making them the quickest off the line.
在911s的世界里,涡轮增压款一直是最快的车。近年来,由于GT3和GT2 RS等车型因其独特性和惊人的性能而成为人们关注的焦点,911涡轮增压款一直被忽视。现在,除了GT3之外,所有911车型都采用了涡轮增压技术,因此涡轮增压也就不那么有意义了。所有的911涡轮增压版本都配备了四轮驱动和PDK自动变速箱,这使它们成为最快冲出去的车型。
 
The base Turbo comes packing 540 hp from a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-fix, while the Turbo S produces a meatier 580 hp. Porsche claims 0-60 mph times of 2.9 and 2.8 seconds for the Turbo and Turbo S respectively, but some outlets have tested them at just 2.5 seconds to 60 mph. Despite such savage acceleration, the Turbo is known as one of the quietest and most comfortable 911s, making it the ideal Grand Touring car. Both the Turbo and Turbo S are also available as Cabriolets, which lowers the 0-60 time by a minuscule tenth of a second. Porsche also introduced a Turbo S Exclusive Series, which ups the power to 607 hp.
涡轮增压基本款来自拥有540马力的3.8升双涡轮平置发动机,而涡轮S版能产生更大的580马力。保时捷声称,涡轮增压版和涡轮增压S版的0-60英里/小时时间为2.9秒和2.8秒,但一些经销店的测试0到60英里/小时仅为2.5秒。尽管有如此野蛮的加速度,涡轮增压版被称为最安静和最舒适的911款式之一,使其成为理想的超跑赛车。涡轮增压版和涡轮增压S版也可作为敞篷车,这把0-60英里的时间降低了十分之一秒。保时捷还推出了一款涡轮S独家系列,它把功率提升到了607马力。
 
GT3 Models
All 911s are special, but the GT models are really special. These are the most track-focused in the range for owners who like to race on the weekends. The GT3 is the most suited for public roads but is still powered by an awe-inducing 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six with 500 hp. Why use a naturally aspirated engine instead of a turbo one? Because it sounds better, of course. The 991.1 GT3 was only offered with a PDK, but demand from enthusiasts forced Porsche to offer a six-speed manual on the refreshed 991.2. Porsche also sells a Touring Package, which removes the rear wing for a more subtle look.
所有911都是特别的,但GT款真的很特别。对于喜欢在周末比赛的车主来说,这是终于适于赛跑的。GT3最适合在公共道路上行驶,但它依然是由令人惊叹的4.0升自然吸气平置6缸,有500马力的发动机驱动的。为什么使用自然吸气发动机而不是涡轮增压发动机呢?因为这听起来当然更好。991.1 GT3只提供了一个PDK自动变速箱版本,但来自发烧友的需求迫使保时捷提供了一个六速手动的升级的991.2版本。保时捷还出售一个旅行套餐,它去掉了尾翼,使外观更加精致
 
GT2 RS
The 911 GT2 started off as a hardcore, RWD version of the Turbo. The current GT2 RS is the ultimate 911, powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six producing 700 hp. Think of the GT2 RS as the best of the GT3 RS and Turbo mixed into one: a savage creation that managed to lap the Nurburgring in just 6 minutes 47 seconds (the quickest time ever for a rear-wheel-drive production car at the time). The GT2 RS is the most expensive 911 with a $293,000 starting price, but like most modern Porsche 911 GTs, the price has already gone up on the second-hand market due to high demand.
911 GT2一开始是作为后轮驱动版的涡轮增压款式的核心而出现的。目前的GT2 RS是终极版的911,它装备了一台3.8升双涡轮平置六缸发动机,可产生700马力。你把GT2 RS想象成GT3 RS和Turbo合并在一起的最棒的一台车就行:这是一个野蛮的产品,它仅用6分47秒(后轮驱动量产车有史以来最快的时间)就成功地跑完了纽伯格林赛道。GT2 RS是最贵的911,起价为29.3万美元,但与大多数现代保时捷911 GTs一样,由于需求量大,二手车市场的价格已经上涨。
