Porsche 9A2 Evo specs: 3.0L (181.9 ci) 6-cylinder, 91 x 76.4 mm (3.5827 x 3.0079 in) bore and stroke. Rated 379-473 hp, 2020–2026. Used in the Porsche 911.
The Porsche 9A2 Evo is oversquare — the 3.5827" bore exceeds the 3.0079" stroke by 19.1% — a layout that favors airflow and RPM over leverage at the crank. The 3.0079" stroke does not reach 4,000 ft/min of mean piston speed until about 8,000 RPM, so piston speed is not what limits this engine's revs — valvetrain and breathing are. Each of the 6 cylinders displaces 30.3 ci (497 cc).
It is one of 3 engines in the 9A2 family, all of them 181.9 ci — the differences between them are in compression, heads and rating, not displacement. 17 factory variants share these dimensions, rated from 379 to 473 hp across 2020–2026.
