Now, one could argue that such a car is the one
thing missing from Porsche’s ever-expanding range, which is set to welcome the
likes of the Cayenne Coupe and the all-electric Taycan. So what if the
Stuttgart-based automaker built a Shooting Brake using the 911 as a base? Well,
it could look something like this render by Rain Prisk.
The designer took the latest-gen 911, and gave it an Estate-like rear end,
extending the roof in order to hypothetically allow for more spacious rear-end
accommodations.
However, by now you’ve all probably noticed the
problem with such a concept. The only reason why the Ferrari FF worked as a
Shooting Brake was because its engine was located at the front. So, much like
this Pagani Huayra Shooting Brake render from last month, the Porsche 911 also
doesn’t become any more practical than it already is if you were to extend the
roof – it’s a rear-engined car.
Still, it’s an interesting pipe-dream design,
especially with that elongated C-pillar.
