Sally Special and Sally Carrera in the Porsche Museum.
Fourty five years since the first eight-cylinder Porsche, the Porsche V8 is the beating heart of the sports car manufacturer's most powerful hybrids – and continues to break new ground and win affection.
Visitors to the Porsche Museum have always been able to immerse themselves in the world of Porsche – and now there's a futuristic new interpretation right from the start. The highly technically complex Future Heritage Portal puts the spotlight on the Egger-Lohner C.2 Phaeton – the oldest surviving design on which Ferdinand Porsche worked.
In cooperation with Vodafone, Porsche has entered the 5G era at its Weissach Development Centre. Hannes Ametsreiter, CEO of Vodafone Germany, and Michael Steiner, member of the Porsche AG Executive Board for Research and Development, switched on the 5G standalone network today. Real-time mobile communications will now be available with immediate effect for vehicle development at the site. The new technology will ensure the secure and instantaneous transmission of data between car, human and machine. At the same time, it will improve the framework conditions for the strategic development of new vehicle systems and functions at Weissach, allowing 5G to be integrated in the cars of tomorrow, to meet the requirements of the future.
Right on time for the start of the IAA MOBILITY 2021 in Munich (from 7 to 12 September), Porsche is to provide a spectacular look into the automotive future. The Mission R concept car combines state-of-the-art technologies and sustainable materials, such as natural fibre-reinforced plastics, with a passion for racing.
