The Porsche Targa moniker debuted back in 1966 to describe a unique convertible vehicle design featuring a removable roof section and a full-width roll bar behind the seats. Porsche has redefined the meaning of Targa throughout the years but the nameplate has now returned for the 992 generation in the form of the 2021 Porsche 911 Targa 4 and Targa 4S. As with the outgoing 991 generation 911 Targa, this latest model features a unique interpretation of the Targa formula that is close to the original but now uses a power-operated roof panel that can be opened or closed in just 19 seconds.
As always, the Targa will likely make up a sliver of the 911’s overall sales, which includes a slew of model variants like the Carrera, Carrera S, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Turbo, and Turbo S coupes and convertibles as of this writing. Targa customers will enjoy the open-top driving experience, which blends the best of both worlds from the Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe and Cabriolet models.
