For a long time now, Porsche has been intensively testing the new 911 Safari model, which is based on the Carrera S. It is a legal-road rally model with off-road capabilities.

Spy photos show that the suspension is slightly higher than the Carrera S. After testing in the snow, the car is currently being tested near the Nürburgring.

Under the hood will be a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged boxer 6 engine with 443 hp (326 kW) and 390 lb-ft (529 Nm) of torque. According to some information, the Safari will have all-wheel drive, and power will be transmitted via a 7-speed manual transmission or an 8-speed dual-clutch PDK. It reaches 60 mph in just over 3 seconds with a top speed of 190 mph (306 km / h). It is equipped with 20-inch rims wrapped in 295/40 Pirelli tires.

There are still many questions about the specifications of the Porsche 911 Safari. Will it enter mass production and when? Will it be a limited edition? How much will it cost? So far, we only have rumors without official confirmation.
