The Porsche Carrera GT has an engine displacement of 5.7 L.
More precisely, its naturally aspirated V10 measures 5,733 cc, or about 5.7 liters. The engine is mounted longitudinally behind the cabin in a rear-mid-engine layout and drives the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission. It was one of Porsche’s most technically ambitious road cars of the early 2000s.
The Carrera GT’s V10 grew out of Porsche’s racing-engine development work, including the abandoned LMP 2000 sports-prototype project. The production engine used an aluminum block and heads, four valves per cylinder, variable intake-cam timing and forged titanium connecting rods. It developed 450 kW, commonly listed as 612 PS or about 603 hp, at 8,000 rpm.
A frequent mix-up concerns the concept car: the original concept used a 5.5-liter version of the V10, while the production Carrera GT received the enlarged 5.7-liter unit. Porsche produced the road car from 2003 to 2006, building 1,270 examples. Its carbon-fiber monocoque, ceramic clutch and carbon-ceramic brakes helped make it a landmark analog supercar.
