Porsche’s hero 911 models for 2016 are set to make their public debut at January’s Detroit Auto Show bringing more power and improved efficiency.

The 911 Turbo and 911 Turbo S are both powered by a 3.8 litre bi-turbo six-cylinder engine, with the Turbo making 397kW (up 14kW) and the Turbo S producing 427kW (up 15kW).

Torque? Porsche doesn’t say, so stay tuned for that one... No mention either on the transmission, but the seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is expected to carry over.

Porsche does say that the 0-100km/h times for both models have improved, with the Turbo needing 3.0 seconds to hit the mark and the Turbo S requiring a supercar-shaming 2.9 seconds.
