If you think the Taycan EV was the first Porsche to feature an all-digital dash, think again

Porsche recently debuted the 992.2 911 Carrera and GTS models for 2025

This latest 911 ditches traditional gauges for a 12.65-inch curved digital-screen

The 911 takes inspiration from the 16.8-inch panel on the Taycan

While a screen is more configurable, it simply doesn't offer the drama of an analog rev-counter

Clearly the case on the pre-facelift model which has a physical tachometer flanked by two 7.0-inch panels

Analog fans will surely miss the traditional 5-gauge setup found on older 911s

Having said that, Porsche dabbled with the idea of a digital instrument cluster two decades ago

The Carrera GT concept from 2000 featured a flat LCD panel about 8.0-10 inches across

Although the final production variant did feature traditional analog gauges

We wonder, could Porsche have not retained some physical element, like the moving rev counter on the Lexus LFA?

With the Rimac-Bugatti merger, people anticipated a rebadged Nevera as the Chiron succesor

Instead, the new Bugatti Tourbillion features a naturally-aspirated V16

Co-developed with Cosworth, this all-new ICE engine packs 1000 horsepower

With 3-electric motors, the power output of the hybrid supercar is a combined 1,800 horsepower

Could Porsche follow a similar strategy for its upcoming flagship?

As a last hurrah, how about bringing back the iconic V10 from the Carrera GT?

The high-revving F1-derived engine makes the Carrera GT one of the best-sounding cars of all time

Porsche can take a different route focusing on an electrified lightweight track car

As the successor to the 918, it could ideally also feature a much more updated hybrid powertrain

Porsche's all-electric concepts like the 1000+ hp Mission X and Misson R are the ideal base

Could Porshe too surprise us with an ICE, like it did with Bugatti?

Time will tell if Porsche will leverage Bugatti's strategy on electrification.
