… cishe uzoba nohlobo oluthile losizo lukagesi. Ngeke kwenzeke isikhathi eside ukugcina izinjini zomkhathi “zihlanzekile”, hhayi ngemithetho yokukhipha umoya eqina unyaka nonyaka. Kodwa i-Porsche "igqugquzeleke kakhulu" ukugcina izinjini ezishibhile ngokwemvelo kukhathalogi, ngisho nangosizo lwama-electron.
Yilokhu esingakusho emazwini kaFrank-Steffen Walliser, umqondisi wezimoto zezemidlalo kumkhiqizi waseJalimane, ezitatimendeni ku-Autocar:
“I-torque ephansi ye-rpm yenjini kagesi kanye ne-rpm ephezulu yenjini eshisekela ngokwemvelo kuhlangana kahle. Kungasiza injini elangazelela ngokwemvelo ukuthi iphile.”
Njengabanye abaningi, eminyakeni yamuva nje sibone iPorsche ibheja kakhulu ekufakeni ugesi. Okokuqala ngama-plug-in hybrids, afinyelela umvuthwandaba ngePanamera enamandla neCayenne Turbo S E-Hybrid; futhi, muva nje, ngokwethulwa kukagesi wayo wokuqala, i-Taycan.
Lokhu akusho, nokho, ukuthi izinjini ezivuthayo zangaphakathi sezikhohliwe futhi, ikakhulukazi, izinjini ezishibhile ngokwemvelo.

Ngonyaka odlule sabona abakwaPorsche bethula i-718 Cayman GT4 kanye ne-718 Spyder efike nomshayisibhakela onamasilinda angama-4.0 anamandla angakaze abonwe ngaphambili futhi akhazimulayo. Le njini iphinde yathola indawo kulo nyaka ezinguqulweni ze-GTS ze-718, i-Cayman ne-Boxster.
Kubonakala sengathi kukhona ukuphila kwenjini eshisekela ngokwemvelo, ngisho nasesizukulwaneni esilandelayo i-992 GT3 kanye ne-GT3 RS izinhlobo zemoto yayo evelele kakhulu yezemidlalo, i-911, okwathi ngemva kokungabaza izohlala ithembekile enjinini yomoya “endala”, manje kubonakala sengathi hlakaziwe.
Okungenani eminyakeni ezayo, izinjini ezishibhile ngokwemvelo zizoqhubeka nokuba yingxenye yePorsche. NgokukaFrank-Steffen Walliser, kulindelekile ukuthi bazohlala bekhona kule minyaka eyishumi ezayo, nakuba bengenakugwema ukufakwa ugesi ngokwengxenye ukwenza kanjalo.
