Porsche EV 911

The Porsche 911 is probably every driver's dream, as it represents the pinnacle of sports cars with internal combustion engines. It wouldn't be what it is without its six-cylinder engine, but that doesn't mean it can't be changed. Some aftermarket companies are swapping gasoline engines for electric ones, such as Kindred's new electric Porsche 911 G series.

The Porsche has been given Kindred's Grayback electric powertrain with a rear-mounted electric motor. It delivers 380 horsepower and 380 Nm of torque. It's powered by a 400-volt, 62.2 kWh battery and has a 40/60 weight distribution. Kindred claims a range of 362 kilometers.

The electric Porsche 911 also has "sharper response, more predictable handling and a power delivery that enhances, not overpowers, the car's character." This transformation can be done on 911 models produced from 1974 to 1989.

Inside, Kindred has added a few modern touches, such as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an upgraded HVAC system, and heated front seats. It also comes with a MagSafe wireless charger, a Nappa leather interior, and modern controls.

Kindred will produce and deliver its electric 911 from the first quarter of 2027. Details on color and options will be revealed in August. The starting price is $299,000, and production is limited to just 12 units. Each Porsche will undergo a complete restoration.
