Gemballa Unveils Highly Potent GTR 8XX EVO-R Biturbo

Published: January 29, 2019 | By: American Luxury Staff

German tuning company Gemballa‘s newest offering for Porsche owners is the GTR 8XX EVO-R Biturbo package for 991 Turbo and Turbo S models.

In either case, the result is as fast as it looks. Gemballa put its team to work to increase engine output; the Porsche 911 Turbo S, for example, gets a boost from 580 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque to an incredible 818 hp and 810 lb-ft of torque. The 3.8-liter flat-six boxer engine pushes the vehicle from 0-62 mph in just 2.38 seconds with a top speed of 230 mph. Serious speed.

Gemballa’s cosmetics follow their performance tweaks, and that’s as it should be. The cars have the muscle to back up the flash. Special additions include a number of bodywork pieces like a front lip, an engine cover, aero flicks, side sills, and wing/rear diffusers all crafted from German carbon fiber. The EVO-R’s bolt-on fender flares are dramatic but look brutally cool. Buyers will be able to select from either a matte or a high gloss finish.

Gemballa hasn’t revealed pricing information for the GTR 8XX EVO-R Biturbo package, but pricing for the stock models included in the package start north of $160K.
