If you believe the reports,
Porsche was developing a mid-engine rival to the likes of the Ferrari 488 GTB,
McLaren 720S, and Lamborghini Huracan. While it remains to be seen if
such a project is still ongoing (or if it ever existed), the following
renderings show us what form such a vehicle could take.
The following creation has been dubbed the Porsche
988 Vision and been created by Invisive. Taking inspiration from various
Porsche models, the supercar looks every bit as special as you’d hope a new
mid-engine supercar from Stuttgart would.
Up front, there are a few aspects that particularly
stand out, most notably the bulging wheel arches that are typical of Porsche.
Elsewhere, you will notice an aggressive hood with sharp character lines, thin
LED headlights, and front air intakes similar in shape to those of the latest
911.
As the rendering has been designed to accommodate an
engine between the two axles, it has an overall shape somewhat similar to the
918 Spyder hypercar. As a result, there’s large air intakes on the sides to
feed the powertrain, a low roofline, and a sleek glass engine cover. The 918
design traits continue with eye-catching taillights and a rear wing that
seamlessly extends upwards from the decklid.
Invisive has even taken the time to design an
interior for the supercar, complete with ergonomic sports seats, a
fully-digital gauge cluster, and a two-spoke sports steering wheel.
