I'm sure it will be better than the Nissan Leaf.


Who are we kidding, it's a Porsche. They could slap their badge on an entry level VW SUV and charge $100k for it and people would line up to buy one.

I'll check back in 15 years when it's depreciated to the point where I can afford one.

No reported IMS bearing failures yet, probably a good sign.

I have a credible source at Porsche who told me that AP told him that the Mission-E.2 will have a manual transmission with 9 forward and two reverse gears. Should I put down a deposit or will Porsche have plenty to sell at MSRP?
