The odds seem good.
Porsche celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2023 with Mission X as a window into the future of electric supercars. Since then, there hasn’t been much news about the performance concept, but the company’s CEO is now addressing the lack of collaboration. Oliʋer Bluмe mentioned that a decision on whether or not to put the car into production will be made later this year.
The odds looked positive with the Porsche chief telling Australia’s CarSales magazine that the feed received following the Mission X’s launch last June had a “positive feeling”. “It was a great incentive for us to make the car,” the 55-year-old executive said. If approved, this would be only Zuffenhausen’s fourth flagship supercar, following in the footsteps of the 959, Carrera GT and 918 Spyder.
Porsche has been tight-lipped about the technical specifications of this spectacular concept. We know the Mission .5 inches). It sits on staggered wheels (20-inch front and 21-inch rear) and has a battery pack mounted behind the seat. When the concept was scrapped, we learned the supercar had a power-to-weight ratio of at least 1 horsepower per kilogram (2.2 pounds).
Porsche also touts higher downforce figures compared to the 911 GT3 RS (992), producing a total downforce of 409 kg at 124 mph (200 km/h) and 860 kg at 177 mph ( 285km/h). The Mission
The four-door electric vehicle can now drain its battery from 10 to 80 percent in 18 minutes. Not only that, Patrick George, editor-in-chief of InsideEVs, saw a prototype of the 2025 Taycan 4S capable of accelerating from 8 to 80% in 16 minutes. The Mission The Lotus Eʋija can handle 350 kW.
Nearly a year after its launch, Mission X’s results are still a mystery. Many reports claim it had around 1,500 horsepower, but others put it closer to 1,700 horsepower, if not more. It’s also unclear how many engines it has, though we’d assume at least two – one for each axle – to allow for an all-wheel-drive arrangement. Neʋera and Eʋija both haʋe set up a four-engine engine.
The next production version of the Mission X will be the fastest road-legal production car at the Nürburgring. The eating time of the Mercedes-AMG One is 6 minutes 35.18 seconds. Green Hell is a demanding track, especially for electric vehicles as it is a 12.94 mile (20.83 km) track.
Regardless of price, collectors will gladly offer this car. If approved, production will likely be limited and we wouldn’t be too surprised if all units would be spoken for before the official launch. If it gets the green light this year, first deliveries to customers are unlikely to take place earlier than 2026.
It’s too early to say how one might fare, but we will remind you that the 918 Spyder is limited to 918 units while the Carrera GT before it had a production run of 1,270 units. The 959 is much rarer as only 292 cars were built to order.
