Porsche Says the 911 Turbo S Is Coming Soon and the Gas-Fed Macan Will Get a Successor in 2028
In its first-half earnings call, Porsche confirmed that a new will be shown later this year with a hybrid powertrain. The electric motor in the 911 GTS T-Hybrid is good for a continuous 54 horsepower, meaning the new Turbo S could come close to 700 hp. Porsche also said a new gas-powered compact SUV will arrive by 2028 as a successor to the outgoing . Porsche launched its electric Macan SUV last fall before introducing a refreshed version of its Taycan EV—which just won Car and Driver's EV of the Year award for 2025—this summer. But Porsche isn't abandoning its lineup of gas-powered cars, and in its first-half earnings report, the German automaker made two announcements about exciting upcoming internal-combustion vehicles: the updated 911 Turbo and a future fuel-sipping SUV that will replace the outgoing gas Macan SUV. A Potentially 700-HP Turbo S Porsche has already updated the majority of the expansive 911 lineup, including inserting a new hybrid powertrain into the GTS trim. Even the track-focused GT3 received some light tweaks for 2025, leaving the Turbo and Turbo S as the only models that carried over into 2025 unchanged. But on Porsche's earnings call, CEO Oliver Blume confirmed that the new Turbo S will be revealed later this year and will pack a hybrid powertrain of its own. We expect it to be joined by a non-S model too. The hybrid powertrain should make the new Turbo S even more rapid than before. The twin-turbocharged 3.7-liter flat-six in the current Turbo produces 572 horsepower, with the Turbo S upping the ante to 640 ponies. The T-Hybrid system in the GTS added an electric turbocharger and an electric motor that injects an extra 54 hp and 110 pound-feet of torque, bringing combined output to 532 hp. This means a hybridized Turbo S could be cranking out close to 700 hp. There will, however, likely be a weight penalty of roughly 100 pounds, if the GTS is any indication. A New Compact Crossover Although the gas-powered Macan, originally introduced way back in 2015, remains on sale for the time being in the United States, it is effectively being replaced by the Macan EV. Over in Europe, the internal-combustion Macan has already been pulled off the market due to regulatory reasons. But now Porsche has confirmed that its compact SUV will have a successor with a gas engine. Back in March, Porsche said it was considering a new gas-powered SUV, and now Blume has announced that this upcoming crossover will arrive in 2028. According to Blume, it will be differentiated from the Macan EV, and we think it could introduce a new nameplate. While 2028 doesn't give Porsche too much time to develop this new model, we expect it to ride on the Premium Platform Combustion (PPC) that underpins the new 2025 Audi Q5, allowing Porsche to get the SUV to market more quickly. This wouldn't be a surprise, since the current gas Macan shares its platform with the previous-generation Q5. The new Q5 uses a 268-hp turbocharged four-cylinder, while the SQ5 uses a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 that makes 362 hp. Both engines could find their way into the Macan successor. In the earnings call, Blume also confirmed that electric successors to the 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman are still coming but have been delayed. They will now go on sale after the Cayenne EV, which will be revealed later this year before sales start in 2026. This means the 718 EV will likely reach dealerships in 2027.

It's not surprising that the Online Safety Act doesn't cover personal data safety
On July 25, 2025, the Online Safety Act (OSA) went into effect in the UK, requiring sites hosting adult content and social media platforms to verify users' ages before allowing them to access adult content. With age verification techniques including supplying personal/sensitive information to these sites or platforms (e.g. photo ID, a face scan, credit card information, email address or phone number), many UK residents have turned to using the best VPNs to circumvent the ban. Concerns about the integrity of the third parties employed by sites or platforms have been raised, with many worried that their sensitive personal information will be stored, shared or even used to train AI models. However, many of these concerns have not been addressed by the UK government, with the focus being on the Online Safety Act's enforcement. NordVPN: our top-rated VPN overallFrom our testing, we consider NordVPN to be the best VPN for most people. This is down to its rock-solid security and privacy, excellent speeds and great unblocking performance. Prices start from £2.31 / $2.91 per month for a two-year subscription, which includes an exclusive four months free for Tom's Guide readers. Plus, you can get an Amazon gift card worth up to £50 / $50 if you sign up for NordVPN's Plus or Complete memberships. A 30-day money-back guarantee applies to all subscriptions. While this may be concerning to many UK citizens who do not want their personal information to be shared or stolen, and are worried about the potential ramifications of a data breach or leak of an age verification platform, it's not necessarily surprising that personal data safety hasn't been considered in the OSA. In May 2024, it was revealed that nearly 70% of UK MPs had had their personal information leaked on the dark web, including personal and login information. MP's email addresses were exposed 2,110 times, with some MPs targeted up to 30 times, and over 200 plain-text passwords were also leaked. The most common cause for these information leaks were hacks or breaches of companies that MPs had signed up for using their parliamentary email – including Adobe, Dropbox and LinkedIn. This is incredibly poor cybersecurity practice, as the leaks demonstrate – if the MPs had reused the same login information for any other account, it would be easily accessible. Even MPs who were on committees dedicated to looking after the cybersecurity of the UK had their personal data leaked, which is concerning considering the fact that you would expect them to have much more rigorous and robust data security practices. However, it does make it less surprising that the Online Safety Act does not include any requirements for businesses to ensure that users' personal data is kept secure. It appears as though this simply hasn't been considered. Additionally, with MPs like the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology Peter Kyle making inflammatory statements regarding pushback to the act – he posted on X that those who oppose it are "on the side of predators" – it appears that the government is far more concerned with the enforcement of age verification than ensuring that the sensitive information used for this is kept safe. The Online Safety Act does lay out guidelines for the age verification checks themselves, namely that they must be "technically accurate, robust, reliable and fair," but this doesn't mention anything about them being secure. By not outlining any guidelines for these age verification checks, it means that sites and platforms do not have to use secure third parties. While many are choosing to – for example, Reddit has employed the use of Persona, which deletes all user information within 7 days, and Spotify has employed the use of Yoti, which deletes user data immediately – this offers little reassurance that this will be the case for most other sites. The only statement regarding personal data safety has been from OFCOM, who shortly addressed data security and privacy concerns in an article on the Online Safety Act and what users need to know about it. OFCOM stated: "Strong age checks can be done effectively, safely, and in a way that protects your privacy. As with everything you do online, you should exercise a degree of caution and judgement when giving over personal information. "Data protection in the UK is regulated and enforced by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). We work closely with the ICO and where we have concerns that a provider has not complied with data protection law, we may refer the matter to the ICO. "In the UK people are familiar with having to prove their age in the offline world to buy age-restricted goods like alcohol and tobacco. Age checks to access [mature content] are just the same. It will help stop children from encountering [mature content] online, in the same way that a child should not be able to simply walk into a shop and buy a [NSFW] DVD or magazine." In this statement, the onus is on the end user to make sure their personal data is kept safe, rather than having the Online Safety Act require that the age verification techniques must be secure in the first place. Additionally, providing an ID card to a shop assistant, bouncer or bartender is incredibly different to taking a picture of your ID or scanning your face, especially when there is no guarantee that this information will be deleted. After all, a shop assistant would not take a photocopy of your ID and then hang onto it for an unspecified amount of time afterwards. However, there is some comfort to come from the fact that third-party age verification services will have to follow UK-based data regulations. Under the General Data Protection Regulations in the UK, personal data can only be "kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed." Essentially, this means that data should not be retained when it is no longer needed. While this could technically mean that age verification companies delete user data once their age has been verified – for example, Spotify's age verification partner, Yoti, does this – this may not be the case for all age verification services. Additionally, the statement that OFCOM "may" refer companies to the ICO if they have sufficient concerns that an age verification company has not complied with GDPR does not quite feel good enough when people's faces and sensitive information are at risk. Overall, while many companies do appear to be putting secure age verification checks in place, the concerns about personal data raised by the OSA are not unfounded. Hopefully there will be more guidance released regarding the safety and security of UK citizens' personal data in the coming weeks. We test and review VPN services in the context of legal recreational uses. For example: 1. Accessing a service from another country (subject to the terms and conditions of that service). 2. Protecting your online security and strengthening your online privacy when abroad. We do not support or condone the illegal or malicious use of VPN services.

Liverpool's Harvey Elliott needs a move. The Bundesliga may be the perfect option
This has been a difficult, uncertain summer at Liverpool. Diogo Jota's death places mundane questions about squad-planning in perspective and that will be the case for many weeks and months ahead. But questions about players' futures still intrude and, as unwelcome as they might be, they will have to be resolved. Advertisement Among them: what's next for Harvey Elliott? It's clearly on his mind, too. 'If I had it my way, I would be (at Liverpool) for the rest of my career — it's as simple as that,' he said after open training during Liverpool's summer tour in Hong Kong. 'I love everything about the club, but at the same time I kind of need to be selfish and see what's best for me. 'I have big ambitions. I want to get in the (England) World Cup squad. I want to keep being successful as a player. It's something I still need to review. I need to have a talk with everyone and review the situation. We have many new players who have come in so whether it blocks the path for me, I'm not sure.' What Elliott's options are will depend on a few factors. One is affordability: Liverpool value Elliott at around £50million ($67.7m) and are have no great desire to sell him, with his contract running until June 2027. It is a considerable sum for a player who was a peripheral player for most of last season but Elliott's stock is high following June's European Under-21 Championship, where he showed the full breadth of his talent in England's run to the trophy. He was an orchestrator, rather than the cast member he is for Liverpool, and you could well imagine Premier League clubs willing to make a substantial investment off the back of that impact. If not: how about Germany? While the price-tag may be prohibitive for many Bundesliga clubs, in the short term, at least, that route might really serve Elliott's career well. The Athletic has reported RB Leipzig's interest in Elliott this summer and whether a move materialises or not, it's easy to imagine the former Fulham youngster's form, confidence and influence flourishing within the Bundesliga, which is such a fertile environment for players of his profile. Playing time, of course, is the thrust of that argument. Advertisement He played the first half of the 4-2 pre-season defeat to AC Milan in Hong Kong this weekend but in 2024-25, Elliott accumulated just 371 Premier League minutes (two starts) for Liverpool. That was largely due to the foot injury he suffered in September 2024, keeping him out for nearly three months, but with Florian Wirtz signed over the summer, it's difficult to see Elliott becoming a consistent starter in such a strong side. But, at 22, he needs consistent selection and the Bundesliga offers that opportunity, without forcing a young player to go too far down the table or make too many compromises to find it. The chance to play matters, yes, but the circumstances under which is comes matter just as much. Instead of dropping into Premier League mid-table (or lower) to become a starter, in Germany, a player of Elliott's profile can become a pivotal figure at a top-six club, for a team where the emphasis remains on his attacking attributes: his passing, his creativity, his goalscoring, his ideas. Jobe Bellingham and his recent transfer to Borussia Dortmund offers a useful illustration. Bellingham is a more conservative player than his brother, Jude, and more system-oriented. Nevertheless, he has significant attacking attributes that, next season, will be emphasised in a Dortmund side likely to average around 60 per cent possession and to be the aggressor in most games. As a newly promoted team, it's unlikely that Sunderland could have offered that platform in the Premier League. Realistically, he would have spent more time playing against the ball and fighting relegation. He would have accumulated minutes and experience, but not on his own terms and not in a way that really accented his full worth. Wirtz is another useful reference point. When the attacking midfielder made his controversial move from Koln to Bayer Leverkusen in 2020, one of the factors behind it was not just the opportunity to play for a bigger, wealthier club, but to join a more stable team with a consistent philosophy and a coach, in Peter Bosz, who would make Wirtz central to an attacking system. Advertisement In his first full season (2020-21), at 18, he started 25 games as a No 10 for a team that averaged 57.1 per cent possession (the second-highest in the league) and finished sixth. For a teenage playmaker learning his trade, that was an enviable opportunity and doubtless vital to his education. And while Wirtz was a remarkable talent, he would not have been granted that opportunity in England for a team of equivalent standing. In Germany, even clubs in Champions League contention need to take such risks. For clubs like Leverkusen — and Dortmund, Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig — realising potential and selling for large profit is part of the business model. Leverkusen are exempt from the 50+1 rule and Leipzig artificially conform to it, but without the prospect of major external investment, all clubs, Bayern aside, have to be sellers and have to be efficient at accelerating talent. That is in the favour of high-potential players like Elliott. A player of that calibre can join a powerful club, not get stuck behind high-wage earners in their mid-to-late twenties, but then also be assured of a route upwards, towards football's summit, as and when they flourish. Interestingly, what is often seen as the Bundesliga's brand weakness — its imbalance — is a virtue in this instance. The league's broadcasting deal is not evenly split, meaning that teams promoted into the top flight do not receive vast payments and become instantly cash-rich. As an estimate, Bayern Munich earned about €103million from the Bundesliga's broadcasting contrast last season. Relegated Bochum earned just under €44m. Disparities exist in the Premier League, but not in the same way. Illustrating that, Burnley have spent around €70m this summer preparing for the top flight. In Germany, Hamburg, who are returning to the Bundesliga after seven years away, have spent €4.9m. The result is an inevitable talent gap. It favours Bayern in a way reflected by their dominance, but the other stronger clubs, too, by allowing them (and their players) to often be protagonists in games, affording their young players a series of incalculable advantages that create a flattering light. Recruitment matters. Leverkusen, Dortmund, Frankfurt and Leipzig all identify talent well and are extremely adept at moving through the market and acquiring players early. But when the players arrive, the environment favours their progression. Jadon Sancho, Jude Bellingham, Dani Olmo, Erling Haaland and Dominik Szoboszlai; all were extremely talented. However, their standing in the game and achievements within in it were all conditioned by where they played. If Bellingham had joined Tottenham Hotspur from Birmingham City, would he have been worth €100m so quickly? If Olmo had joined Chelsea from Dinamo Zagreb and subsisted on substitute appearances and loans, would he have become a Spanish international? Advertisement It's impossible to know in either case. What is clear, though, is the Bundesliga not only offers the opportunity to play, but allows players — especially attackers — to acquire a great deal of momentum in a short space of time. Omar Marmoush is a fine example. Michael Olise left Crystal Palace as an excellent player a year ago. Today, he is a world star. Most obviously, Hugo Ekitike went from being a lost boy at Paris Saint-Germain to a potential €93m Liverpool signing at Frankfurt within two years. Elliott's leap may not be that dramatic, but his data profile describes him, potentially, as a standout playmaker in Germany. He lacks an extra gear of speed, perhaps, but his progressive passing and the overall quality of his distribution make him an obvious fit for a league full of transitions and rapid attacking players who, figuratively, in the competitive sense, are running downhill and playing on their terms. As he reaches what appears to be a career crossroads, it's worth dwelling on that part of the Bundesliga sales brochure.
