“Here you have the 959 from 1983 (…) the Carrera GT from 2003, you’ll notice these come in neat 10 year intervals”. Mate that’s 20 years. You missed the GT1 - although street version of that was in 1996…

And maybe I'm the weirdo, but I actually super like that color as well. After their work on the GT4 ePerformance, I imagine this thing will be an absolute monster with it's thermal management.
A stunning Porsche Halo model, harking back to beautiful sports cars prototype designs at LeMans 1966-71 but most importantly this is the result of Porsche’s investment and partnership with Rimac, this is going to be an evolution of the Nevera with Porsche overseeing their own take on a 21st century EV Hyper car! Can’t wait to see it on the street or track! Time to play Powerball again! 🙌🏽🏁🔋💵
That looks bloody fantastic. Sure I wish it had an ICE, but most of us aren't the target market anyway. I'll be satisfied just getting to drive this in VR eventually
Porche never misses 👌🔥 I just wish it had a internal combustion engine.. it kinda reminds me of the 917. I love the spec that color and the interior . The 2 different color seats are really interesting.

The interior of this is just insane, as good as anything I've seen in a $2M+ Koenigsegg or Pagani, just as bespoke and what does bespoke equal? Very expensive.

Beautiful car. Rolling my eyes a bit at the steering wheel paddles for brake bias and regen. I thought Porsche would exercise more restraint there-- not exactly the handy input you need on a wheel, even in a minimalist interior.
It literally is a re-bodied Rimac Nivera and the Pinanfarina Battista is a re-bodied Rimac Nivera too. Porsche owns 45% of Rimac…. I GM guess they thought we wouldn’t notice 🤦🏻♂️😂
Wow this thing is amazing and we all know that when Porsche made a car that car will break all the records I'm so excited to see the mission X on the road as the fastest car
Bro it looks like a museum piece, just stunning. 918 still look earthed, when it comes out ofc it’s a Hypercar part of the Trinity, but nothing like this, it’s just stunning. This is the only electric car and I allow to be electric, the whole everything it looks like an actual spaceship. This is juat a wow. 918 still looks like a road going car. This, this looks like a one of one museum piece, don’t tell me they’re actually making this a road going production car, the jump from a 918 to this is crazy.
I wish they could’ve let you turn off the lower part of the front lights. I don’t really like the design but it’s quite cool. The car probably looks absolutely perfect with just the top part on
It shapes like, if it wasnt an EV, it can take a new gen Flat-12. Like the monsters of the past (917 and its Trans-Am super-brother) Imagine, *a hypercar body with a Group-C inspired engine*
Didn’t think anything would ever replace the 918 Spyder as my ultimate dream car … until I saw the Mission X at the Melbourne Grand Prix. If this is the future, bring it on!!!
@@Grand_Priest_Goku incorrect. Hydrogen ICE is being developed all over the world. It uses modified diesel or petrol engines and combusts the hydrogen in the same way as any ice car. Hydrogen can be used in other ways, but your statement is entirely incorrect. Look at JCB Hydrogen as one example.
You'd think so, given their recent merger but I think I read or heard that this is bespoke Porsche tech, not originating from Rimac. That could of course all change, given its future release date.
The most special thing about this will actually be the weight and a totally new battery technology. Electric hypercars are no real alternative for the track yet, because they are so heavy. I mean even the recent Rimac Nevera weighs 2150kg, which is like crazy 800kg more than the best hypercars with a combustion engine. Porsche said in an German interview that they want at least a 1:1 ratio of power to weight and in the same report it was said that the car won't weigh more than 1500kg, because everything will be aimed for maximum lightweight, even the E-motors, the batteries... just basically everything. For comparison: the AMG ONE weighs 1695kg and has 1063 HP (power-ratio is 1 to 0.63). So with only 1500kg + a 1:1 power-to-weight-ratio, all the newest Porsche magic when it comes to the E-motors, suspension, chassis, aerodynamics, cooling etc. and all the newest Porsche-Rimac magic when it comes to the batteries and E-technology (so stuff, that is currently only developed for this car), this beast will be a monster on the track. Porsche already mentioned that in their current simulations they beat the new AMG ONE Nordschleife record by an insane amount of time. That's obviously only a simulation and when the Mission X is meant to be produced as a street-legal car in a few years, we're talking about battery-technology and other technology that is not on the market yet - but Porsche and also Rimac are working on it. I bet this car will set a new benchmark for E-hypercars on the street when it will be produced in a few years.
All Porsche really has to do is update and electrify the GT2 and it will comfortably beat the AMG One. But the target is moving. 200 extra horsepowers gives around 15 second advantage between Porsche GT3 and GT2 models so how much will further horsepower give? I tend to think quite a bit more because it can't taper off instantly but when you get close to 6 minutes you need some scary performance. By the way, Mission X will probably be the first production car that will gain noticeable acceleration thanks to downforce. I consider +10% noticeable increase. So Mission X could start at around 1.4 G at 0 and reach 1.55 G at 150 kph. Maybe. But it's pretty cool if it can.
I'll take a amg one over an electric hypercar🤮🤮 hypercar cars should not be electric! Now I'm well aware I'm not the target Audience but electric supercars/hypercars are extremely repulsive
yes please - perfect colour too - rear view mirror cameras are going to make all kinds of design statements, starting with this one. Really intriguing placement.
I think most people would pick the 918 Spyder, but yes most people would pick the Carerra GT over an all electric car. This is basically just a fancy looking Tesla Plaid. If sports car enthusiasts wanted EVs then Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren would all be selling EVs now. You aren’t just paying for speed, you are paying for the driving experience, and EVs are nowhere near the driving experience as a ICE sports car
Absolutely gorgeous machine and what a fit out internally. No surprise it looks like the LeMans prototype currently back on the circuits. 918 still looks amazing too, 10 years and fresh as a daisy ❤❤❤😢😢 poster only fir me
This is the challenge of all car makers for the. future isn't it. Straight-line speed is boring after the 3rd time. Which never is boring is sound, handling, apex, breaking on the limit, and a combination of it.
@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 I agree, but.... How much of that is legal on the road? Just the sound. Which element is missing in this car? Just the sound.
@@procatprocat9647 It will be history.....but those super cars which are lined up will be cared for and remembered. Its not only the sound - its the attack on all senses, its what you see, what you smell, the vibrations in all ranges, the oil, gas, leather...this will be from the past soon - the world will be cleaner, but the immersion into all senses will be a thing of the past.
@@RedLP5000S must be more and it will be more then 1to1 means 1000ps vs 1000kg, the challenge is to make it as light as possible (the 918 was relative heavy), the Rimac is already lighter which is good, light is good
@@RedLP5000S Sadly, the Venom F5 does not meet global homologation standards. It is street legal only in some parts of the world and even then, you get a limited special driving license. In the US, you can only cover specific miles per year on public roads with the limited usage license that comes with this car....
I like Porsche since I studied mechanics 9 years ago and when my family gave me a book about the history of Porsche and I learned about the Porsche 360 Cisitalia 👨🏻🔧
I know everything is now all about electrification. Do you think that we would see a hybridized naturally aspirated flat 6 911 on a basic trim (such as carrera and carrera4s?) or most hybridized 911 will be paired with a turbocharged flat 6 (probably excluding the soon hybridized gt3?) ?
They finally lit up the "Porsche" in the real lights! I wish they'd have done that with the Taycan! Would love to have it light up one letter at a time as you power on the car! How cool to have a mic drop moment like that with it going "P O R S C H E" one letter at a time like that? I investigated doing that on my Taycan and the money to do it would just be nuts. Can't wait to see what the production model of this car looks like and what it can do!
Battery's are probably going to be solid state, two of the major battery manufacturers are planning production runs from 2025, Solid State is the game changer, twice the capacity, twice the output, half the charging time, so the cars can be significantly lighter than current electric vehicles while still out performing them in every metric.
Who thought brown would look good on a modern electric super car?? I honestly would have chosen silver or some fancy color instead. Either way Porsche is just awesome!
Because Porsche has likely run into two rather big issues with it's e-fuels program. From the start, Porsche has looked at e-fuels as an intermediary step and I suspect that it has alot to do with scale.... I honestly don't think that Porsche wants to be in the fuel providing business, and as of with now, they only have one factory (maybe two?) making the synthetic fuel. They can't and likely won't provide e-fuels for anything outside of motor-sport and even within it, the use of it's own e-fuel is likely going to be limited. With brings us to the second issue, it takes a lot of energy to produce e-fuels which also means that production is somewhat slow. Motorsport fuel demands are rather high, and that doesn't even get the large economy.... slow fuel production isn't going to work out aside from the odd experiment or several. Plus, Porsche has rather quickly got up to speed with the electric motor.... Then is also the fact that because of the deal that made the Bugatti-Rimac Group, they get open access to what Rimac Technologies has been cooking with. So yeah, might as well make a electric hypercar at this point, it is not as if it's impossible to do or they don't have to expertise for it.
Porsche never said sustainable fuels is the main focus but just a supplement mostly for racing or existing cars. They repeatedly stated that their main focus is EV for the future with 80% of new models being EV by 2030
Porsche put two speeds in the Taycan. With how good PDK is, it makes sense to add a few more gears and harness that monster torque in electric motors and also increase the gear ratio dramatically for range. It wouldn’t surprise me if this car comes out with a transmission.
pdk is good but imagine this running on CVT... you could have way more relations to acelerate, and once a certain speed is reached make it way more eficient making it have a long range.
True but their is a bit of a catch to that. You see, you control the gears in a Taycan by speed alone, it is truly automatic. Could you put in more gears, maybe but that is more a waste of energy that anything because gears in a ICE are not just for entertainment sake... it to control the torque band, which for an EV is effectively 0. Hell, the Taycan has to two speed to control the heat of the gears than anything else. Sadly, range is a static near flat line between the gears the Taycan does have.
That's against the Porsche Philosophy I would say - they are all about form follows function - you don't need a gear box anymore - the Taycan use it for higher efficiency - but its also higher weight. High Tech engines don't need those anymore - so safe the weight.
I'm curious to see how far is the interest of collectors and the super rich and enthusiasts on electric hyper cars go. For now hybrids and electrics are new and cool, and crazy. I wanna see if that will fade away with time and the new wealthy generations. If people who lost interest on motor sport in general is a metric, the lack of sound will definitely be a problem. Like what happened with F1.
@bavariancarenthusiast2722 it should be. As a matter of fact I think porsche should make a limited number of 911 GT1's (50-100) every generation (997-991 ect) and it should be an extreme track focused car. Porsche keeps making the GT2 RS, and I keep wondering why they don't build the 911 GT1? Such an underrated car.
You missed an important point here that Porsche is intentionally moving away from surface touch interfaces (ahem Ferrari) and towards metal mechanical/physical/tactile controls as a means of bringing back ‘analogue glory days’ of Porsche. It’s a welcome change. Not that I’ll ever be able to own one. But hopefully it will trickle down as the new design language.
Its amazing how fresh the Carrera GT and 918 still look, you could release them as new cars today and no-one would complain, crazy the 918 is 10 years old too!

I'll take a amg one over an electric hypercar🤮🤮 hypercar cars should not be electric! Now I'm well aware I'm not the target Audience but electric supercars/hypercars are extremely repulsive
The Daytona window in the roof is fantastic, and the Porsche Design chronograph is a gem in an outstanding interior.
yes please - perfect colour too - rear view mirror cameras are going to make all kinds of design statements, starting with this one. Really intriguing placement.
This was your best presentation so far. I like this a lot!
2:20. In 10 years time, with the mission X added to their lineup, most would still pick the nearly 30 year old Carrera GT
Yes I would 100% pick the Carrera GT
I think most people would pick the 918 Spyder, but yes most people would pick the Carerra GT over an all electric car. This is basically just a fancy looking Tesla Plaid. If sports car enthusiasts wanted EVs then Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren would all be selling EVs now. You aren’t just paying for speed, you are paying for the driving experience, and EVs are nowhere near the driving experience as a ICE sports car
The color and look are amazing and with help from rimac it should be sick
Le Mans inspired prototypes are my favorite super/hypercars
Absolutely gorgeous machine and what a fit out internally. No surprise it looks like the LeMans prototype currently back on the circuits. 918 still looks amazing too, 10 years and fresh as a daisy ❤❤❤😢😢 poster only fir me
I can't wait to see competition in the all electric hypercar. Good start Porsche.
Rimac Nevera, Lotus Evija, Aspark Owl, Pininfarina Battista
Great Job Top Gear! Love it! What a statement from Porsche!
Interior is 10/10 !
I can't believe the holy trinity is already 10 years old. I remember arguing with my friends in highschool about which one would be the fastest.
I'd rather it not be an EV, these cars can be fast and quick but something can be fast and boring.
This is the challenge of all car makers for the. future isn't it. Straight-line speed is boring after the 3rd time. Which never is boring is sound, handling, apex, breaking on the limit, and a combination of it.
@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 I agree, but....
How much of that is legal on the road? Just the sound.
Which element is missing in this car? Just the sound.
@@procatprocat9647 It will be history.....but those super cars which are lined up will be cared for and remembered. Its not only the sound - its the attack on all senses, its what you see, what you smell, the vibrations in all ranges, the oil, gas, leather...this will be from the past soon - the world will be cleaner, but the immersion into all senses will be a thing of the past.
@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 you've entirely misunderstood my post.
2:09 so the famously tricky clutch that ive herd alot about is fixed by having a wooden gearstick knob, interesting
I like how they have kept every switches one expects to be there even though it's a car coming out by 2026 or 2027
It's stunning! 😍
now THATS what i'm talking about!
an LMH for the street!!!
make it an LMH ! LMDH all kinda look the same :(
Great episode.
All they have to do is rely on the drive train developments from Rimac since they started that partnership last year. Should be awesome.
Many elements of the design look like concept cars from the 80's. Particularly the roof/glass.
Compared to the 918 Spyder, the new electric Porsche will output twice as much horsepower. 900X2= 1800 horsepower, approximately.
It meant be even more, remember they have partnership with rimac. So, they easily install a version 1.5 electric motors of the nevera.
So as much as the already produced Hennessy Venom F5.
@@RedLP5000S must be more and it will be more then 1to1 means 1000ps vs 1000kg, the challenge is to make it as light as possible (the 918 was relative heavy), the Rimac is already lighter which is good, light is good
@@RedLP5000S Sadly, the Venom F5 does not meet global homologation standards. It is street legal only in some parts of the world and even then, you get a limited special driving license. In the US, you can only cover specific miles per year on public roads with the limited usage license that comes with this car....
Great feature from TG. Feels like the old TG.
those wheels are insane
I like Porsche since I studied mechanics 9 years ago and when my family gave me a book about the history of Porsche and I learned about the Porsche 360 Cisitalia 👨🏻🔧
I know everything is now all about electrification. Do you think that we would see a hybridized naturally aspirated flat 6 911 on a basic trim (such as carrera and carrera4s?) or most hybridized 911 will be paired with a turbocharged flat 6 (probably excluding the soon hybridized gt3?) ?
The 918 spyder is my ultimate JEEZ it's perfect.
Never let anyone ever accuse Porsche of making a beautiful vehicle.
How can you possibly think this car is ugly???
All opinions, even if they stink. 😅
I, personally like it.
@@Moakmeister you want to know what makes someone call this car ugly? It's because they have eyes.
@@lastnamefirstname9043 unlike the Porsche.
Just a light joke for you
@@Moakmeistertheir reputation preceeds them as far as design, cooking and warfare goes.
When someone hears mission x people expect an absolutely ridiculous track focus car but this car is seams more sophisticated and elegant
918 porsche still looks like a brand new car in 2023
Don’t know about the drivetrain but this thing looks aesthetically ready for production
Porsche Utopia! 😎
As soon as I heard it’s electric, my heart broke😢
Skill issue
Bro grow up
Beautiful, for a BEV. Lot's of innovation, pushing the envelope. Just don't say it's saving the planet, that's all I ask.
That is one fancy shed!😀
The 918 was the most underwhelming looking car of the holy trinity at the time, but now…. It’s bloody gorgeous
Damn. Porsche knows how to design cars. 🤩
Love the 959❤❤
Ultimate: Mission X body/interior, Carrera GT Engine, 918 Hybrid System
That would be sick!
They finally lit up the "Porsche" in the real lights! I wish they'd have done that with the Taycan! Would love to have it light up one letter at a time as you power on the car! How cool to have a mic drop moment like that with it going "P O R S C H E" one letter at a time like that? I investigated doing that on my Taycan and the money to do it would just be nuts. Can't wait to see what the production model of this car looks like and what it can do!
Battery's are probably going to be solid state, two of the major battery manufacturers are planning production runs from 2025, Solid State is the game changer, twice the capacity, twice the output, half the charging time, so the cars can be significantly lighter than current electric vehicles while still out performing them in every metric.
Who thought brown would look good on a modern electric super car?? I honestly would have chosen silver or some fancy color instead. Either way Porsche is just awesome!
Porsche: Sustainable fuels are the future!
Also Porsche: Our flagship is electric!
Don’t they have a 992 gt3 racecar running on hydrogen? Or am I making that up 😂🤔
@kentbeitel9966 I can't find that with some google-fu. But the porsche 911 cup runs on renewable fuels and Porsche has invested heavily in it.
Because Porsche has likely run into two rather big issues with it's e-fuels program. From the start, Porsche has looked at e-fuels as an intermediary step and I suspect that it has alot to do with scale.... I honestly don't think that Porsche wants to be in the fuel providing business, and as of with now, they only have one factory (maybe two?) making the synthetic fuel. They can't and likely won't provide e-fuels for anything outside of motor-sport and even within it, the use of it's own e-fuel is likely going to be limited.
With brings us to the second issue, it takes a lot of energy to produce e-fuels which also means that production is somewhat slow. Motorsport fuel demands are rather high, and that doesn't even get the large economy.... slow fuel production isn't going to work out aside from the odd experiment or several.
Plus, Porsche has rather quickly got up to speed with the electric motor.... Then is also the fact that because of the deal that made the Bugatti-Rimac Group, they get open access to what Rimac Technologies has been cooking with. So yeah, might as well make a electric hypercar at this point, it is not as if it's impossible to do or they don't have to expertise for it.
Porsche never said sustainable fuels is the main focus but just a supplement mostly for racing or existing cars. They repeatedly stated that their main focus is EV for the future with 80% of new models being EV by 2030
@@DuvJones considering porsche and co dropped 1 billion for a factory in Tasmania I think they are pretty committed to e fuels
Stunning vehicle! Porsche does it again
Porsche put two speeds in the Taycan. With how good PDK is, it makes sense to add a few more gears and harness that monster torque in electric motors and also increase the gear ratio dramatically for range. It wouldn’t surprise me if this car comes out with a transmission.
pdk is good but imagine this running on CVT... you could have way more relations to acelerate, and once a certain speed is reached make it way more eficient making it have a long range.
True but their is a bit of a catch to that. You see, you control the gears in a Taycan by speed alone, it is truly automatic.
Could you put in more gears, maybe but that is more a waste of energy that anything because gears in a ICE are not just for entertainment sake... it to control the torque band, which for an EV is effectively 0. Hell, the Taycan has to two speed to control the heat of the gears than anything else.
Sadly, range is a static near flat line between the gears the Taycan does have.
That's against the Porsche Philosophy I would say - they are all about form follows function - you don't need a gear box anymore - the Taycan use it for higher efficiency - but its also higher weight. High Tech engines don't need those anymore - so safe the weight.
I'm curious to see how far is the interest of collectors and the super rich and enthusiasts on electric hyper cars go. For now hybrids and electrics are new and cool, and crazy. I wanna see if that will fade away with time and the new wealthy generations. If people who lost interest on motor sport in general is a metric, the lack of sound will definitely be a problem. Like what happened with F1.
00:54 I can definitely use that as my pc wallpaper
Looks like a ufo-uap with wheels amazing ❤
Early 90s: 959
Early 2000s: Carrera GT
Early 2010s: 918 Spyder
Early/Mid 2020s: misson x
Love how the 911 GT1 (the best of the bunch) gets forgotten when porsche supercars are mentioned.
I agree, Barry.
Because it's not a supercar - its a pure race car in street pajamas - a homologation breed, never rooted in a Supercar.
@bavariancarenthusiast2722 it should be. As a matter of fact I think porsche should make a limited number of 911 GT1's (50-100) every generation (997-991 ect) and it should be an extreme track focused car. Porsche keeps making the GT2 RS, and I keep wondering why they don't build the 911 GT1? Such an underrated car.
Correct because there was a Strassenversion GT1 and they should've parked it before the CGT.
Unbelievable that the Carrera GT is 20 years old and stll looks this good 😊
Hopefully they dont get completeley rid of the combustion engine
What a masterpiece - futuristic.
Instant favourite for me.
Love it, can't afford it... doesn't matter.
We can all dream.
Danke schoon Porsche!!
And it has the Daytona 917 roof window. 😊
How great is that!!!!!! if you find this design easter eggs only if you know! With Gulf livery please
Absolutely stunning design, definitely the best looking of the electric hypercars in my opinion
The front light is not looking sharp enough. 919 concept looks much bolder, balanced and beautiful, and it has that Lmp race car DNA.
The lights are so distinct it genuinely doesn’t look like a Porsche.
Nice new Porsche 918 Spyder.
You missed an important point here that Porsche is intentionally moving away from surface touch interfaces (ahem Ferrari) and towards metal mechanical/physical/tactile controls as a means of bringing back ‘analogue glory days’ of Porsche. It’s a welcome change. Not that I’ll ever be able to own one. But hopefully it will trickle down as the new design language.
La future hypercar électrique de Porsche est annoncée par cette Mission X.
That's... quite a busy design. It's past present and future all crammed into a car. There's even a T top.
The extra window up front is a nod to the 917 racing in the US
I wish they kept the headlight concept but I onow it will be insane
Porsche Carrera GT still looks the best after all of these years
