Porsche has previewed the Mission S, a new mid-engined supercar positioned above the 911 as a permanent addition to its lineup. The concept showcases future design directions, drawing inspiration from classics like the 917, 959, and GT1, while also echoing elements of the Aston Martin One-77 and BMW i8. Inside, the cabin prioritizes driver engagement with haptic and digital feedback, a nod to the 356 and 550 Spyder.
Notably, there is no passenger display or central infotainment screen—instead, a Mag Safe dock integrates smartphones. While powertrain details remain undisclosed, the rear exhaust suggests an internal combustion engine, likely a flat-eight cylinder, similar to the 908 race car or Ruf’s recent reveal. Forced induction or hybridization, possibly using Porsche’s T-Hybrid system, remains unconfirmed but plausible.
