●The new Porsche 718 pure electric vehicle
The new Porsche 718 electric vehicle is likely to be officially unveiled before the end of 2023, for which Porsche has planned to invest about 3.6 billion yuan in production preparation at the Zuffenhausen plant in Germany.
At the same time, according to foreign media reports, the successor of Porsche 718 pure electricity will be built based on the PPE architecture jointly developed with Audi, and Porsche's new Macan pure electric SUV will also be built through the PPE architecture at the Leipzig plant in Germany.
The Porsche 718 pure electric successor will be based on the exterior, interior and technical solutions presented in the Mission R concept car. Relevant people said that the focus of future mass production cars is on the handling feeling, use feedback feeling and sound texture, while acceleration ability and absolute performance are not so important, and in order to reduce weight, the dual motor system may not be suitable.
● New Porsche Macan Pure Electric Edition
The new Porsche Macan will be launched in 2023, the first Porsche model based on the PPE platform, and is expected to have excellent power performance, with the main model mileage likely to be around 600 km.
In terms of exterior design, the new car adopts Porsche's latest design language, and the black surround design adds a touch of rugged temperament to the new car. Compared with the spy photo test model, the new car has restored the bumper license plate position design, and the large-area closed shape is also very in line with the positioning of its pure electric model.
The new Porsche Macan will use two battery packs of different capacities, and in the future, many Porsche and Audi brand pure electric cars and SUVs, including the Audi Q6 e-tron, will be produced through the platform.
In terms of interior, the new car has changed a lot, the traditional gearshift has become an electronic gear handle, the center console with a small knob, is expected to be used to control the central infotainment screen, in addition, the dashboard, the central control screen has also undergone a large degree of change, it looks more technological and more modern.

● New Porsche Panamera
The new Porsche Panamera may be unveiled between 2023 and 2024, and the biggest highlight of the car is not only a comprehensive upgrade of the exterior, interior and configuration, but also an increase in the proportion of plug-in hybrid models, and may even launch a pure electric version.
In terms of exterior design, combined with the previous spy photos, it can be seen that the new Porsche Panamera will have great changes, first of all, the headlamp shape is obviously different, the internal LED light source structure is also different, and the tail shape and taillight structure are also different.
Regarding the powertrain of the new Porsche Panamera, it is expected that the power of the 2.9T V6, 4.0T V8 and E-Hybrid plug-in models will be improved, when the 48-volt light hybrid system may be widely used, and the proportion of plug-and-mix models may be increased, and finally, a pure electric version may be introduced.
● New Porsche Cayenne/Cayenne Coupe
The new Porsche Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe are expected to be available in 2023, with further optimisations in terms of exterior and interior, and will feature some designs similar to the Porsche 911, with the powertrain expected to be consistent with the current model.
In terms of appearance, through spy photos, it can be seen that the new Porsche Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe maintain the overall outline of the current model, but the shape of the front bumper and headlights has changed slightly, and the LED turn signals have changed from one to two more eye-catching, which is Porsche's latest family design.
In terms of interior design, the new Porsche Cayenne family products will be further optimized and upgraded, the car will be equipped with a full LCD dashboard, with a large size central control screen, and the most noteworthy thing is that the future new car may also be equipped with a gear lever similar to the Porsche 911 shape.
In terms of powertrain, it is expected that there will be no essential changes in Porsche's new Cayenne family, with a 2.9T engine with a power of 440 hp, a 3.0T engine with a power of 340 hp, and a 4.0T engine with a power of 550 hp that will continue to appear as the main force, matching the 8-speed automatic transmission and the four-wheel drive system.
● Porsche 911 Hybrid Edition
Porsche 911 Hybrid Version may be unveiled in 2023, the new car has been determined to be equipped with a gasoline-electric hybrid system, rather than the plug-in hybrid system commonly used in European brands, the total power of the powertrain is expected to reach about 700 horsepower.
Based on previous news, the new car may be based on the Porsche 911 Turbo, and the reason for choosing a conventional hybrid system is that it has a more ideal weight and will not make the new car too heavy.
In terms of powertrain, the Porsche 911 Hybrid Edition will be equipped with a hybrid system consisting of an engine, electric motor and battery pack, in which the battery is placed under the seat in order to obtain a more ideal front and rear axle counterweight, and the total power of the system is expected to be about 700 horsepower, which may have an electric cruising range of less than 20 kilometers.
● Porsche 911 Safari
The Porsche 911 Safari, which may be officially unveiled in 2022, is inspired by porsche rally cars from the late 1970s to early 1980s, and the significantly higher chassis clearance gives it a stronger road passability, which may be sold in limited quantities in the future.
In terms of appearance, there is no obvious difference between the model in the spy photo and the current 911, but the ground clearance is significantly increased, the wheel brow part is obviously wider, and it can be clearly seen that the rear tire is wider than the front tire, all of which are changed to obtain stronger road pass performance, and the new car also has a very unique tail wing design.
At present, there is no information about the power of the new car, foreign media speculate that the new car may be equipped with the same powertrain as the Carrera 4S, that is, a 3.0L turbocharged horizontal opposed six-cylinder engine, after optimizing the position of the intercooler to improve the cooling efficiency of the intake system, the maximum power may be about 331 kilowatts.
●Porsche 911 Sport Classic
The Porsche 911 Sport Classic, which is expected to be officially unveiled in 2022, is a special edition model that may be sold in limited editions, with a look that some designs are not currently available on the mass-produced 911 model, such as the distinctive tail wing shape with the tail upturned.
In terms of appearance, the Porsche 911 Sport Classic adopts a similar design to the current model, and the difference is mainly reflected in the details, first of all, the "concave" shaped roof, and the rear of the obvious tail, which are very unique designs, of which the tail design is the same as the previous Porsche 911 Sport Classic model.
In addition, the porsche 911 Sport Classic has a penetrating LED light source at the rear, a heat dissipation port in front of the tail wing, and a new style of lightweight rim shape.
In terms of powertrain, there is not much news about the Porsche 911 Sport Classic, but there are rumors that the power of the 3.8L horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine is expected to reach 550 horsepower, with better power performance.
●Porsche 911 GT3 RS
The Porsche 911 GT3 RS, which could be unveiled at the end of 2022 and likely to be available in early 2023, will feature a more performance-oriented aerodynamic design and a 4.0-liter horizontally opposed 6-cylinder naturally aspirated engine that could reach 550 horsepower.
In terms of exterior design, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS in the spy photo looks closer to the mass production state, the difference is that the shape of the engine cover vent is significantly different, and the internal design looks more regular, without the jagged guide design on both sides of the previous spy photo.
The Porsche 911 GT3 RS will have a more exaggerated aerodynamic design, the most eye-catching of which is the huge tail wing at the rear, which can provide more downforce in the extremely low body and drive steadily, while the ground clearance of the new car also looks lower, and the front fenders are also designed on both sides, indicating that the car will have strong performance.
In terms of power system, compared with the current Porsche 911 GT3, the car is equipped with a 4.0-liter horizontally opposed 6-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, with a power of 502 horsepower and a torque of 469 Nm, and the PDK version can achieve 0-96 km/ h acceleration in only 3.2 seconds.
As a result, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS will undoubtedly have more power, although it will continue to focus on a 4.0-liter horizontally opposed 6-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, but after further optimization and upgrading, it is expected that the power performance will be even better, and it is expected to reach 550 horsepower.
