Yahoo Autos Porsche will soon decide whether to build the Mission X hypercar
Porsche hypercars don't come around very often. In the 21st century, we've seen the V10-powered Carrera GT and the plug-in hybrid 918 Spyder. The brand hinted at what a follow-up could look like with the Mission X concept, and executives will soon decide whether to build it.
"With the concept, we have shown the technology we want to put in the car, the performance profile, and the feedback we got at our 75-year celebration was massively positive, so it's a great motivation for us to do the car," company boss Oliver Blume told Australian site CarSales.
Of course, putting a car on the path to production takes more than motivation. Feasibility will ultimately play a major role in deciding whether the Mission X will be remembered as a wild-looking concept car or as the 918 Spyder's successor. It helps that the coupe looks far more realistic than the average design study; it wouldn't take much tweaking to turn it into a production car, at least from a design perspective.
