Porsche to kick off an all-electric mission e production

An electric driven Porsche Mission E, which was first brought to light in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show, has received the go-ahead to be produced, enabling Porsche to join the group of car manufacturers in pursuit of a vehicle with a remarkable standard like Tesla’s. Porsche, however, did not give a specific release date but assured the general public of a finished product by the end of the decade.

Currently a work in progress, the Mission E vouches of a range of more than 300 miles, 600 horsepower, and 0 to 60 acceleration in 3.5 seconds, with a 800 volt battery as the centerpiece of the Mission E, which is approximately twice the voltage of an average EV battery used today. To crown it all, Porsche claims that this battery can receive up to 80 percent charge in just barely 15 minutes of time.

Porsche remains forever faithful to its brand, providing sophisticated and advanced technology vehicles to its customers. Porsche executive board chairman Dr. David Blume referred to this as “taking on the challenge of electric mobility.” The Porsche Mission E is a remarkable piece of work. It is very artistic for the technology field with its precise, slimmer, and sleeker look, which was revealed at the Frankfurt Motor show.

The Mission E would be a four-door, four-seat model Sedan with energy storage techniques derived from Le Mans 919 Hybrid race car, accompanied with a lightweight construction and battery tech from the defunct Spyder 918 model. The proposed concept of the Mission E is set not to be altered too much from its current concept idea and provide hints for the upcoming Panamera; the name is also set to change before the final expected production.

One of the concepts of the Porsche Mission E includes two electric motors that power up the vehicle, with one acting as the front axle and the other one giving drive to the rear wheels. It features a “liquid cooled battery set up low in the floor,” which according to Porsche provides low center of gravity. Another concept is a floor plan made entirely from high strength steel, aluminum, and reinforced carbon fiber plastic.

One glance at the concept revealed in September automatically put the Porsche Mission E on the list of the best looking vehicles of 2015, with its sleek aesthetic cool enough for an all electric car, new matrix LED light get-up, arched front fenders, and white and black wheels.

The production of the Porsche Mission E would spearhead more than a thousand new jobs at Porsche’s Stuttgart HQ in Germany, with $700 million in production money required. The Porsche Mission E would be the first ever Porsche model offering a pure electric drive.

Porsche has also declared its plans for a new paint shop, as well as more extensions to its current lines and a body shop to receive its new model. It also plans on putting more investment into its Weissach development center.
