Porsche’s forthcoming 718 Boxster/Cayman Twins, Macan SUV, Cayenne SUV, and even a seven-seat SUV are projected to be electric by 2030. Porsche wants only some electrified 911 parts. The Porsche 911 will still feature pistons, according to Porsche’s Senior Project Lead for eFuels, Karl Dums. Only the Porsche 911, according to Dums. He remarked, “We will make the 911 with a combustion engine for as long as possible.” However, the 911 will be electrified. Porsche announced a 911 hybrid drivetrain. Electric assistance is likely even if it’s not a plug-in hybrid with an extensive EV-only range. Porsche also supports e-fuels, chemical-based gasoline. Porsche, which invested in Chilean e-fuel firm HIF, is the most vociferous proponent of carbon-neutral fuels. E-fuels created from recycled materials offset carbon emissions. Carbon-neutral fuel. CO2 and other greenhouse gases are captured to make e-fuels. Porsche’s EV and e-fuel ambitions are different, Dums said. The 911 is ICE, unlike the company’s other racing vehicles. Porsche risks losing 911 sales to the 718 Boxster and Cayman, also superb sports cars. Since the cheaper variants are GT4 and RS, this is especially true. The 911 will retain its appeal even if the Boxster and Cayman go electric. E-fuels and hybrid powertrains may help Porsche’s 911’s internal combustion engine last longer. Porsche’s 911 will be its second-to-last ICE car by 2030.
