After the concept car named ‘Mission E’ was shown in 2015, the Porsche Mission E Cross Turismo is the second all-electric concept from Zuffenhausen. This time, however, there will be no waiting to get behind the wheel, because as early as 2019, the production version of the current-carrying, almost five-meter-long cross-utility vehicle should be on the road, which could be dangerous for US electric car giant Tesla. The Geneva-based all-terrain concept, which is probably not accidentally reminiscent of the successful Audi A6 Allroad, has two synchronous motors that can produce more than 600hp, four-wheel drive, and an 800-volt architecture, while the batteries can be charged via the fast-charging network, induction, at a charging dock, or at Porsche’s home energy storage. The sprint from a standstill to 100 km/h is said to be possible in less than 3.5 seconds, and you should be able to accelerate several times in succession without loss of performance.
While the exterior combines the design language of the 2015 Mission E concept with the aesthetics of the current Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo, the interior features a new, expansive interface concept with visual controls.
