I already posted about this R&D EV PR back in Sept.: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/EVLN-Porsche-Mission-e-concept-600hp-800V-r-500km-4real-this-time-tp4677599.html EVLN: Porsche Mission-e concept 600hp 800V r:500km ?4real this time? Sep 15 2015 ?So why do I currently see the newswires so clogged with the Mission-e topic? Well IMO it's feel-good PR. VW is still reeling from all its bad PR when it was caught being dishonest https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche#Relationship_with_Volkswagen Even GM knows there is nothing like exploiting the public's child-like/FOMO short-term memory with lots of fluff and puff distracting PR. And the media loved Porsche long before it even began to like Tesla. I do not dislike Porsche nor VW. I just know from experience of searching the news for plugins since 1990, that Porsche has a habit of announcing something great sounding, just to see it later dashed/dropped/killed, see http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/Porsche-Boxster-E-concept-ts-124mph-0-60mph-5-5s-241hp-t-398ft-lbs-tp3557413.html Porsche Boxster E concept ts:124mph 0-60mph:5.5s 241hp t:398ft-lbs May 28, 2011 http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1099229_porsche-reportedly-bringing-electric-pajun-concept-to-frankfurt Porsche Reportedly Bringing Electric 'Pajun' Concept To Frankfurt Jul 21, 2015 ... In 2011, the company revealed the Boxster E Electric Prototype, and recent patent filings indicate we could see also a fuel cell model at some point.

Jul 21, 2015 - A report coming out of France finds Porsche's on-again, off-again sub-Panamera sedan will be presented to the public this September at the ... The wording 'on-again, off-again' really sums up how flaky their efforts have been. For years Porsche makes a lot of PR noise about Electrics, but nothing really happens. I will wait 3.5 years to see if the Porsche Mission-e is an EV or pih, and if it actually becomes available for the public to buy. Remember, by that time, there will be a new U.S. administration (a new ball game). Maybe that is what they are killing time for ... I mean when the Chinese can hack-n-steal designs then clone a best-selling car, and their is quick 3D printing to accelerate the R&D prototyping/tuning, ... why does it take years for these archaic/old-school brick-and-mortar automobile companies to produce a product?
