One could be forgiven for thinking Porsche just hit copy on the company’s Xerox machine when designing the latest Cayenne, but there’s actually a lot of subtlety and fine details that make the third-generation model unique. A new video on the design of the latest Cayenne, which arrives...

Porsche announced the 911 R for the 2016 model year and the enthusiast-minded folk all nodded their heads and let out a collective "sweet!" That sweetness was tempered, though, as we all know that limited-run Porsche cars are often sold before they're even announced. Plus the pricetag for this play...

Prior to Porsche announcing its exit from the World Endurance Championship and commitment to the Formula E Championship in July, there were rumors circulating the German sports car marque might be planning a return to Formula 1 as a power unit supplier.

Porsche is a shining star of Volkswagen Group these days, but times weren't always so prosperous. In fact, Porsche was in crisis mode in the early 1990s as sales of its 911 slipped. In fact, it sold just 3,713 cars in the United States in 1993, according to the automaker. What's a sports car brand...

In the past couple of years, Porsche has redesigned the Cayman and Boxster (adding the 718 designation to each), introduced a twin-turbocharged 911 Carrera, and turned the Panamera from one of the most unattractive cars on the road into one of the best looking. Good. Great. Wonderful. And none of...

To a fair number of folks, the film Le Mans remains one of the greatest pieces of cinema focusing on the world of motorsport. The star of that film is not Steve McQueen, but rather the Porsche 917K that takes home the checkered flag. As is the case with most films, a number of cars were used to...

When you're going to build a car and call it "Exclusive," you're going to need to make it stand out from the other models in your lineup. Porsche is doing this with its new 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series on sale this year. Limited to just 500 units, the mighty machine takes the Porsche 911 Turbo S...

Porsche cars from all eras are rising in value at a brisk pace. Certain 911 Carreras from the 1970s can fetch high six- and even low seven-figure sums. Few Porsche cars from the modern era command that sort of dollar. One such car that does is the mighty Carrera GT, and an incredibly clean example...

Porsche creates some fine sports cars today, but arguably some of its best came from yesteryear. Case in point: the Porsche 993 911 GT2. For those looking for the ultimate expression of performance from the air-cooled era, the 911 GT2 is a one-stop shop, and one is heading to the Mecum Auction...

Singer Vehicle Design and Williams Advanced Engineering are clearly trying to coax us into making poor financial decisions because the duo have announced plans for one hell of an engine collaboration. It's an air-cooled, 4.0-liter Porsche flat-6 engine that makes—wait for it—500...

Life gets in the way, even when you're behind the wheel of a 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS.

The 991-series Porsche 911 is getting a bit long in the tooth and due for replacement soon, as we've been tracking for close to two years. Earlier this year, Porsche launched a GT2 RS which is normally the last core 911 member to be introduced. Now it looks like a Speedster version could be the...

Mark Webber has a number of racing wins and podium finishes under his belt, in both Formula One and the World Endurance Championship. In the latter, he was named a world champion. Walter Röhrl is 30 years Webber's senior, and he too knows a few things when it comes to driving a car. Röhrl...

The Porsche Mission E concept debuted two years ago as a signal to the automotive industry: the German sports car maker is ready to take on Tesla. However, Porsche's electric car plans don't involve simply introducing a Tesla Model S competitor. It wants to revolutionize charging infrastructures...

Los Angeles-based Workshop 5001 has a thing for old Porsches. The owner is a man named Marlon Goldberg, and he's brought a pair of classic 911s by the famous garage of comedian and television host Jay Leno. Goldberg's company is an expert at restoring old German sports cars, particularly Porsches...

The 2018 Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid is an intensely busy machine. There’s nothing raw or visceral, two words nearly synonymous with Porsche, about this four-door hypercar, and yet it feels every bit the flagship it is intended to be. After on- and off-track drives around Victoria...

Prepare to be divided, all ye Porsche fans who click play on the video above. This is one of the all-time greats in a 911 lineup filled with plenty of great machines. We're talking about the iconic Porsche 930, in all of its whale-tail glory. It would normally be packing an angry turbocharged...

Hybrid technology has infiltrated many spheres of the automotive industry, but some cars remain holdouts—and for good reason. Sometimes, hybrid tech doesn't quite mesh with a sports car's soul, even if it ultimately improves performance. For that reason, Porsche has steered away from...
