4/6 The basic shape of the cabin, which tapers towards the rear, and a highly distinctive topography from the cockpit to the turbines establish visual parallels with the iconic design of the 911 and the Taycan. Photo courtesy: newsroom.porsche.com
5/6 The instruments in the cockpit are clearly aligned with the driver's axis, while the low seating position is reminiscent of the sporty ergonomics in the Porsche 918 Spyder. (Photo courtesy: newsroom.porsche.com)
6/6 The front is reminiscent of the so-called “air curtains” (air inlets) that go together with the headlights to create a single formal entity in the Taycan. In addition to the four-point daytime running light typical of Porsche, the so-called “blasters” – long gun barrels at the front – are located at the tip. (Photo courtesy: newsroom.porsche.com)
