Recent article in December Excellence lays our Porsches road to EV strategy. States that EV 911's will be 2030+. Macan starts in 21/22, Boxster Cayman 23/24, Panamera 24/25 and Cayenne 25/26.
Of interest is that they say insiders speculate that ICE engine variants may be built concurrently for 5+ years to test the market. One can only hope!

Nothing really new, just another source. Interesting that Blume said "The future of Porsche is electric". I don't think that makes him a visionary but more a realist.
Not against a 911 hybrid, I'm sure it will be done right but I won't be the first in line.

This whole "it's all going EV" thing is going to be shaken to its core by the economic and political upheavals going on regarding energy production, especially if the EU disconnects from Russian gas permanently.

There will be an 800HP variant of the 718EV. The car will be bonkers.

The Carrera GTS is a Carrera. It's not a halfway point between the Carrera and GT3. It is a Carrera with a specific set of options. If the Carrera goes hybrid, the Carrera GTS goes hybrid.

Like this past summer when California was issuing flex alerts asking people to change their charging routine to prevent straining the grid. And this is when EVs are only a fraction of cars on the road. But I think that’s the goal anyways, to restrict when you have energy.

Many Americans are just plain ignorant of what they pay for energy, and when.

In addition to my Porsche's, I've had Hybrids (Honda), and I currently own a Plug-In Hybrid (BMW) and a Full Electric (KIA) in addition to my 992. Count me very interested in a Full Electric Cayman and/or a Hybrid 911. FWIW, until you've tried it, don't knock it.
