Porsche plans new sport "super" car

0 comments



Porsche boss Matthias Müller plans a super sports car "above the 911", one that is priced as high as €600,000 with over 700 hp. The 918 Spyder is closest we have seen that alludes to such a model. This luxurious 2+2 seater new icon will be an expressive and radical model that will fall into the field of an Italia Ferrari 458, McLaren MP4-12, or Lamborghini Gallardo. (Think Carrera GT +)

A mid-engine V8 bi-turbo engine could be the weapon of choice in this flat two-seater. It will be immediately recognizable in sight and sound. Design chief Michael Mauer has said that the proportions should be thought as compressing the perfect speed - a car that only about 1.22 meters high, 4.50 meters long and about 1.90 meters wide and even with a bit of room for a small weekend luggage. Logically, there must be an extremely light weight carbon fiber composite chassis, that wears aluminum parts while working together for razor sharp handling.

Fittingly, all-wheel drive is likely in effort of grip with such power. Porsche is also working on a multi-purpose "e-mobility kit", that is scheduled to be operational by early 2013. A year later, we could have the world premiere of the new experience supercar. Let's just call it 929 for now!
