Just a few days ago, Porsche issued a report stating that as much as 60% of Panamera customers, in some markets, are purchasing hybrid models. Between the Panamera S E-Hybrid and the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid, there are two electrified models of Porsche's big luxury touring sedan to choose from, and they've both proven to be quite popular.

Porsche Sets A New Nürburgring Lap Record, This Time Towing A Trailer
No, this isn't some stunt where a fake lightweight trailer is hooked up to the back of a high-powered 911 variant in order to set a quick lap and garner a few extra lines of copy in buff books. Instead, it's a stunt where a Panamera Turbo, hauling a proper custom-German-built Moetefindt Fahrzeugbau trailer with another Porsche (a Junior tractor) …

Dr. Jim Lowe had better hope that no other Neurosurgeons decide to take up air racing. Barring that, his title as World's Fastest Neurosurgeon is probably pretty safe. Dr. Lowe is also a pretty serious contender for the "most interesting man in the world". In addition to racing, Dr. Lowe is a golfer, competitive surfer, and 30-year veteran of the …

993 RSR vs. 993 GT2 vs. 996 Cup at Magny Cours!
This three-way dance could inspire feelings of hatred or admiration for different generations of Porsche, depending on your own driving style. Clearly, our camera man, sitting behind the wheel of a well-sorted 993 RSR, is the winner where talent is concerned. However, at the ultra-fast Magny Cours, power goes a long way in compensating for lack of …

When you get Pat Long, Jeff Zwart, Rod Emory, and Joey Seely of E-motion Engineering to collaborate on a single project, the outcome is bound to be a seriously rad Porsche. In this case, 'LuftAuto 002' is that outcome and it fits the bill to a T. The LuftAuto thing all started with Luftgekuhlt 3 when they built a white Safari-style Carrera to be …

Safari 911s are very much in vogue right now. Of course, 911s behave rather well on loose surfaces, so it's only appropriate.

Now, Instagram user Trialpsycho_RC is bringing us the smallest …

I want to begin by mentioning that I purchased this book over a year ago ahead of the 2016 holiday season, and it just arrived at my doorstep yesterday. Even after all that wait, it must be said that it was well worth it once the book was in my hands. Dwight Knowlton has knocked the ball straight out of the park with his third children's book …

One of the cooler things that Porsche has done this year was to orchestrate this elaborate road trip. The premise of the "Le Mans Unravelled" trip was to show people just how much effort goes into driving the distance of the 2016 Le Mans 24 Hour race winners. When Porsche won the 2016 running of the world's most famous sports car race, drivers Marc …
