The promo video, featuring Mark Webber and Formula E development driver Gabriela J\u00edlkov\u00e1, shows the duel between two wildly different cars conveniently ending in a tie. What\u2019s the point? It\u2019s a marketing effort meant to highlight the obvious benefits of an electric motor\u2019s virtually instant response, even when the vehicle is a porker. But in any other performance metric, the 918 Spyder runs circles around the Cayenne Turbo Electric<\/a>.<\/p>\n If we\u2019re talking strictly about 0\u201362 mph (100 km\/h) performance, the electric Cayenne still isn\u2019t Porsche\u2019s quickest. That title belongs to the Taycan Turbo GT with the Weissach Package<\/a>, which does the sprint in 2.2 seconds. The less hardcore Taycan Turbo S is also quicker than the luxobarge at 2.4 seconds. The Cayenne Turbo Electric does have a\u00a0feather in its cap: the most powerful Porsche ever, with a ludicrous\u00a01,139 hp.<\/p>\n The only Porsche that could improve on these numbers is the Mission X<\/a>. However, the company has yet to commit to building a production version of the electric hypercar concept introduced in 2023. Given how electric performance vehicles haven\u2019t taken off in terms of popularity as Porsche would have hoped, the firm\u2019s reluctance to green-light the project makes sense.<\/p>\n Porsche\u2019s renewed affection for combustion engines<\/a> suggests the Mission X won\u2019t hit the streets anytime soon. Should a 918 Spyder successor arrive as a pure EV, the targets are already set: the fastest road car at the N\u00fcrburgring, a 1:1 power-to-weight ratio, and more downforce than the 911 GT3 RS.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
