Porsche Mission E is created to rival the Tesla Roadster

Porsche is well known as a brand of high-performance four-wheel vehicles. A number of studies proved that Porsche cars were very reliable and durable, 97.4 percent of Porsche cars which were purchased within a period of 25 years were still roadworthy.

Porsche is quite ambitious; it intends to win the title which was once held by the Tesla Roadster - the first true electric sportscar. Bringing futuristic theme both on outside look and advanced technology inside, the manufacturer from Stuttgart introduces a concept vehicle named Porsche Mission E. And certainly this car is equipped with a variety of advanced capabilities.

Usually the appearances of Porsche cars have a common thread with the previous variants. Interestingly, Mission E looks away from the basic design that's pioneered by Ferdinand Porsche. This car has sexy curves; the Matrix LED lights on the front look like the alien eyes, these lights have four separate modules that adorn the curved corners.

Porsche explains that the design of Mission E is inspired by the Porsche 918 Spyder. At the rear, there is a long line of lights in a black glass finish. You may wonder about the existence of Mission E's rearview mirrors. Porsche uses the technology of virtual mirror, and the camera system works in real-time to 'reflect' the image around, shown at the end of bottom glass. This step is done to improve the aerodynamics aspect.

Mission E doesn't have B-pillar, the front and rear doors are opened in the opposite direction. Furthermore, the panel instruments are designed without corners. The display utilizes OLED and the driver can customize it. You are welcome to access the functions of Porsche Connect, Performance, Drive, Energy and Sport Chrono. Amazingly, the menu navigation is supported by eye-tracking technology.

This futuristic vehicle is armed with two electric motors, not much different from the 919 Hybrid 440kW, the winner of last year Le Mans, it's able to generate power up to 600HP. The machines ensure the Mission E can accelerate from 0 to 100km per hour in less than 3.5 seconds, and then bring it to 200km per hour in 12 seconds.

Remarkably, Mission E only takes 15 minutes to charge 80% of the battery. When fully charged, the car is able to run up to 500 kilometers. If the Mission E project is really realized, at least the car will be released in 2019.
