In 1974 the Porsche 911 fourth generation was launched, and Porsche made some major changes to the design of the 911.

Porsche stopped production of the 911E and 911T and introduced bode colored bumpers, and Porsche also introduced electronic fuel injectors to their 911 engines, as Porsche were keeping up with new fuel regulations that had been introduced in the U.S.
