As a die-hard EV fan,I never thought I'd agree withPorsche saying "no" to an electric 911.


My last post covered Ferrari’s first EV Luce.

Interesting, considering Enzo Ferrari once said:

“When you buy a Ferrari, you buy an engine.”

Yet Ferrari entered the EV era.


Porsche is taking a different path.

CEO Michael Leiters made it clear.

The 911 stays combustion and hybrid.


Why?


Its rear-mounted flat-six defines it.

An EV can match performance.

But can it preserve architecture?

That’s the real engineering debate. ⚙️


Ferrari is changing the powertrain.

Porsche is protecting the architecture.


One is preserving performance.

The other is preserving character. 🚗


An EV can replicate acceleration.

Replicating weight distribution is harder.

Replicating decades of driving feel is hardest.


If Porsche built an electric 911 tomorrow,

Would it still be a 911—or just another fast

EV wearing an iconic badge?🤔
