Is A Porsche 912 On The Horizon? - Storyboard

Porsche's head of design recognizes the need for a smaller 911

The 912 could be the solution, but there is a catch

The original Porsche 912 was a four-cylinder 911, produced between 1965-1969 and 1975-1976

Early 912s were powered by the Porsche 356, 1.6-liter boxer engine

Models produced in 1975 and 1976 were dubbed the 912E, and were powered by a Volkswagen 2.0-liter engine

A revived Porsche 912 would make more sense as an EV

A four-cylinder, 911-like sports car would not be well-received by Porsche fans

And a scaled-down 911 will be an impossible fit for the wide boxer engine

Porsche is preparing to launch a few more EV models

If a 912 is among them, it would share hardware with the 718 EV
