This is the new Porsche Mission S, and it previews an upcoming new Porsche supercar that sits above the 911. Sure, there have been Porsches above the 911 before, from the 959, via the GT1 Strassenversion and the Carrera GT, to the 918 Spyder – but they’ve always been limited-run hypercars.
Instead, what the Mission S previews is a mid-engined supercar (with an internal combustion engine, no less!) that will be constructed in metal and not carbon, built in the thousands not hundreds, and priced in the hundreds of thousands rather than millions. So, still not a Porsche for the masses, but a course correction after Porsche’s EV misadventure…
