At the 2022 LA Auto Show Porsche revealed a limited edition version of its all-road car, the Porsche 911 Dakar. It is based on the Carrera 4 and Porsche planned to produce 2,500 examples of this model. A few days ago, a unique example was produced for an Italian customer, which is also the last 911 Dakar.

With this model, Porsche paid tribute to the Porsche 911 (953), which won the famous Paris-Dakar rally in 1984. The car has a slightly higher ground clearance than the Carrera, which in Off-Road mode can be increased by an additional 8 cm in height , and in Rallye mode the distance can be reduced from 8 to 5 cm.

This example is finished in a combination of yellow, dark blue and light blue. It is equipped with a new front bumper, revised air intakes, fixed rear wing, round exhaust pipes and a single-piece light bar under the rear wing.

911 Dakar is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged boxer 6 engine with 473 hp (348 kW) and 420 lb-ft (570 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to all wheels via an 8-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK). It reaches 60 mph in 3.4 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 149 mph (240 km/h). It’s mounted on a set of 19 and 20-inch wheels wrapped in 245/45 R19 (front) and 295/40 R20 (rear) all-terrain tires.

The car will be displayed in a museum before being delivered to the customer in Italy.
