The Porsche Mission S concept has been spotted at the Nürburgring, although it wasn’t there to set a lap record.
A social media video captured the car being driven around one of the circuit’s corners at a relatively slow pace, followed closely by a Mercedes-Benz van carrying what appears to be a front-mounted camera rig.
As the Porsche Mission S passes the camera, its loud exhaust note can be heard. The Mercedes van can also be seen moving towards the right to capture the Porsche from different angles.
The Mission S is based on an all-new mid-engined supercar platform positioned above the 911. Porsche CEO Dr Michael Leiters has confirmed that the architecture can support combustion and hybrid powertrains, as well as manual and PDK-style transmissions.
While Porsche hasn’t revealed full technical details, reports suggest a new flat-eight engine could be on the cards.
