Ever since Volkswagen showed its BlueSport concept roadster--and ever since Volkswagen and Porsche engaged the clutches on their ego-driven takeover drama merger talks--enthusiasts have chatted up and dreaded the notion of a new four-cylinder Porsche convertible. It's fair enough to assume the Porsche 914 might get a successor in today's new green... Read More »

Not to be outdone by Infiniti and its specially designed Louis Vuitton luggage, Porsche has announced plans for a special set of suitcases designed by...well, by its own design group. The luggage is meant to complement the new Porsche Panamera, and based on the photos we've seen, the valises look really, um, practical. We're sure every Panamera... Read More »

A new full hybrid Cayenne Hybrid S model, along with major weight savings and improved fuel economy (and better performance) across the line is the big... Read More »

Sweet, then sour: Saab's financing deal with China's Hawtai has collapsed, which means chances of seeing this Phoenix concept or Hawtai's fabulous $10k Cayenne knock-off are a little less likely today. Awkward! [MotorAuthority] So, can Saab survive the latest peril in its Pauline-like saga? I dunno, #YouTellUs. [SocialCarNews] In happier news, the... Read More »

Think you know Porsche? You may be well-versed on their road-going cars, including such pioneering efforts as their Semper Vivus serial hybrid (actually introduced as the “System Lohner-Porsche”) from 1898, but did you know they once built farm tractors? From 1956 through 1963, Porsche produced both gasoline and diesel engine tractors... Read More »

Earlier today Porsche took the sheet off its 2012 Panamera S Hybrid, revealing a 333-horsepower, supercharged V-6 powerplant supplemented by a 47-horsepower electric motor in the familiar long-back sedan shape. Now we have its starting price: $95,000. That's a steep point of entry, but considering the standard 400-horsepower V-8 Panamera S starts... Read More »

In 2007, Volkswagen Group CEO Martin Winterkorn said that the company would become the world's largest automaker by 2018. Since then, Volkswagen has made progress toward that goal -- last year, it reached the world's #1 spot in production volume -- but it's hit a few snags on the sales front. Though some brands in the family like Audi have been... Read More »

The name Porsche has traditionally been associated with fast, rear-engine sports cars, and more recently with fast heavy SUVs and fast heavy four-door luxury sedans. But it all goes back to pioneering engineer Ferdinand Porsche. He also designed the prototype for what became the Volkswagen Beetle, and would found Porsche AG after World War II... Read More »

The Basics: If you like the Porsche Boxster but aren't convinced a convertible is the fastest way to get around in life, Porsche has your alternative: the Cayman, the hardtop version of the same architecture, and in many ways, a perfect substitute for the bigger, more expensive 911. It's changed very little for the 2011 model year, and that's... Read More »

The hybrid race concept Porsche 918 RSR was just unveiled in Cobo Hall and we have the first live photos of the car for you, fresh from the Porsche stand. It looks even better in real life than it does in the official studio shots, but then, it should. It should also go like a scalded, bionic cat. Combining the supercar-worthy hybrid system of the...

The unveiling of the Porsche 918 RSR hybrid/KERS racer took place just a few hours ago in Detroit, and now we have the official video of the unveiling. Framing the car in history as a spiritual descendant (though not a successor) of the fantastic, fearsome, and brutally fast 917, the video also includes some awesome shots of the sickeningly hot...

The Porsche Panamera may suffer a slow and painful demise at the hands of Porsche's new owners, the VW Group, but its death will not be in vain: sources from within the company indicate that the Panamera platform will live on as a new vehicle in Volkswagen's sprawling family of brands.According to Edmunds, the company source wouldn't confirm ..

Savages!Who would dare to compare the Porsche Boxster--it's only the reincarnation of the 550 Spyder, you know--to a Datsun?We would, and we're not the only ones. During the recent press preview for the 2010 Nissan 370Z Roadster, the Japanese carmaker's team laid it out in PowerPoint: the Z's a bargain Boxster, minus the fuss and .. Read More »

You might have missed it, but Porsche's new president and CEO, Michael Macht, announced yesterday that Porsche is planning to introduce an electric sports car. On second thought, you probably didn't miss it, because it's been all over the news -- despite the fact that Macht provided no details and said only that current battery technology .. Read More »

Porsche might want to lay off the hubris for a while. The company spent much of the past year tilting at the giant windmill known as Volkswagen and insisting that it isn't interested in new models or VW technology. Today, not only is Porsche owned by VW, but also we're getting word from Porsche's head of development, Wolfgang Duerheimer, that .. Read More »
