The new generation Porsche 911 (known as 992.2) in the Carrera Coupé, Cabriolet, and Targa versions features one of the most innovative filtration solutions from UFI Filters: the exclusive UFI MULTITUBE. Designed by UFI researchers, this new generation of engine air filter replaces the traditional panel filter with a patented tubular structure. It represents a significant leap forward in filtration technology that optimises air flow, reduces energy losses, and contributes to increased performance, making the vehicle more efficient and powerful.
UFI MULTITUBE: the new generation of engine air filter
UFI MULTITUBE filter features a patented tubular structure that replaces the classic panel filter and radically improves the fluid dynamics of the air flow in the engine. Thanks to this geometry, the air flows more linearly through the filter, reducing aerodynamic drag and improving engine response. Certified tests have shown that this system can increase engine power by up to 4% on certain models, while reducing fuel consumption and emissions.
UFI MULTITUBE for Porsche 911 features:
- Black filter material for an elegant and discreet look, made of 100% hydrophobic synthetic fibres to guarantee long-lasting efficiency and high flame resistance, passing the DIN53438 – ISO standard test.
- High filtration efficiency: MULTITUBE is able to trap up to 99.5% of particles.
- Geometrical flexibility and a reduced footprint compared to traditional panel filters make this system easily adaptable to manufacturers’ requirements and engine compartment layouts, while maintaining high filtration performance.
- Lightweight and reduced size: the weight of the filter has been reduced without compromising quality, helping to improve the overall efficiency of the vehicle.
UFI MULTITUBE filter integrates perfectly into the engine compartment of the redesigned Porsche 911, positioned above the intercooler to further optimise the car’s overall efficiency.
Restyling of the Porsche 911 (992.2): more power and a new hybrid soul
In addition to the integration of the innovative UFI MULTITUBE, the restyled Porsche 911 opens up to electrification with the new T-Hybrid system installed on the 911 GTS – the first hybrid model in the range. This advanced hybrid system consists of an electric motor integrated into the turbocharger, which also acts as a generator and delivers up to 11 kW of electrical power. In addition, a permanent magnet synchronous motor integrated into the 8-speed PDK gearbox adds 54 hp and 150 Nm to the main engine, for a total of 541 hp and 610 Nm of torque.
The hybrid is powered by a 1.9 kWh high-voltage battery with a voltage of 400 V and compact dimensions equivalent to a conventional starter battery. This system complements the 911 GTS’s new 3.6-litre boxer engine, which produces 485 bhp and 570 Nm of base torque – a significant increase over the previous 3.0 engine.
UFI Filters: innovation in the service of high performance
UFI MULTITUBE technology confirms UFI Filters’ commitment to the automotive sector, offering a cutting-edge solution that meets the requirements of efficiency, performance and sustainability. The newly redesigned Porsche 911 benefits from this technology, achieving increased power and engine performance while reducing emissions, in line with the trend towards more efficient and sustainable mobility.
