MYSTERIOUS: Porsche is planning a new supercar with a flat eight engine report - You Need To See This

  • Porsche is reportedly developing a new supercar known internally as the S1, priced at around €500,000.
  • The rumored flagship could use a flat-eight gasoline engine, bucking the industry's shift toward electrification.
  • Porsche may preview the S1 to investors during its Capital Markets Day on October 7.

Porsche hasn’t built a supercar in over a decade, as production of the 918 Spyder ended in June 2015. Although the 919 Street, developed two years later, would’ve been a proper successor, it never moved beyond the clay model stage. Consequently, the LMP1 race car for the road will remain a “what if” moment in Zuffenhausen’s history. However, there are reasons to be excited about what lies ahead, as the company has already revealed plans to consider a new model positioned above the 911.
