The new Porsche 911 Dakar is here – it can cross deserts and lap the Nordschleife faster than a 996 GT3 🌵 🏁
► On sale now, UK prices from £173k
The 911 Dakar is production-ready and it’s likely to sell out quickly, with just 2500 to be built. The price? A cool £173,000, a stiff price reflecting its limited-edition status and thorough development programme. First UK deliveries are due in April 2023.You won’t mistake this 911 for a regular or cooking model. It stands tall, riding 50mm higher than normal for extra ground clearance – and an axle lift system can raise that a further 30mm for the full off-road, on-tiptoes stance.
The biggest visual jolt? Check out those extreme, 9mm-deep tread pattern off-road tyres: the Dakar comes as standard with Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus hiking boots which are responsible for finding grip where road tyres would scrabble. They’re responsible for reducing the top speed to 149mph, but buyers can option summer or winter tyres if they’d prefer.
