Overview

• Porsche has published full specifications and set the 911 Cup price at €269,000 excluding VAT and the GT3 R Evo at €573,000, with roughly 60 upgrade kits for existing GT3 R models available at €41,500 plus taxes.
• The 911 Cup gains 10 hp from flow-optimised individual throttle valves and new camshafts while retaining a 100-hour overhaul interval and adding a modular three-piece front splitter, deleted daytime running lights and an automatic engine-restart feature.
• The GT3 R Evo’s 4.2-liter flat-six produces up to 565 hp under balance of performance and benefits from front-arch louvres, a 4 mm Gurney flap on its swan-neck rear wing and suspension tweaks for more predictable braking and downforce balance.
• Porsche has streamlined its customer-racing naming by dropping the ‘GT’ suffix and renaming the former GT3 Cup as simply the 911 Cup, and it has bundled formerly optional sensor, endurance, pit-lane link and camera packages into the new GT3 R Evo’s base spec.
• A development GT3 R Evo finished second overall at the 12 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps in April, and both 2026 models completed extensive testing at Weissach, Sebring, Paul Ricard, Spa and the Nürburgring to validate their performance.
