The engine

4.0L NA H6

4.0L Naturally-Aspirated Flat-6

Porsche's naturally-aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six is a motorsport engine for the road — no turbos, a wailing 9,000-rpm redline, and the purest, most thrilling sound in the Porsche range.

Derived from Porsche's GT and Cup racing engines, this high-revving boxer powers the cars enthusiasts revere most: the 911 GT3 and the 718 Cayman GT4.

It revs to around 9,000 rpm — extraordinary for a road-car engine.
It's closely related to the engine in Porsche's one-make Cup race cars.
