Called the 911 Dakar and limited to 2,500 examples worldwide, the new car is an homage to Porsche’s outright win at the 1984 Paris-Dakar Rally.
Porsche says the system is available for “ambitious off-road adventures at speeds of up to 170 km/h [105 mph]”. Above that speed, the car automatically lowers back down to its usual height, which is still 50mm higher than a base 911.
The Porsche 911 Dakar comes fitted with Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires with a chunky, 9mm deep tread pattern and reinforced sidewalls. Summer and winter tires are also available, turning the Dakar into a true year-round sportscar. Porsche says the standard all terrain tires “offer sports car dynamics on the road” as well as composure on the dirt.Optional additional equipment include a roof basket and a roof tent, as well as a special 911 Dakar chronograph watch by Porsche Design.
The 911 Dakar is powered by the same drivetrain as the 911 GTS, which means Porsche’s three-litre flat-six engine sits at the back, producing 473 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque. This is sent to all four wheels via an eight-speed PDK semi-automatic gearbox. No manual option is available. The car can sprint to 60 mph in 3.2 seconds and top speed is limited to 150mph due to the all-terrain tires.
