Porsche Teases Mid-Engine Supercar Called 'Mission S'PorschePorsche released a teaser video for the Mission S, a new concept car that previews what is expected to be a new supercar line above the 911.When it reaches production form, the Mission S could be equipped with a flat-eight engine and positioned against competitors like the Ferrari 849 Testarossa.The new model is part of Porsche's revival plan aimed at lower-volume, higher-margin products, with the goal of making more money while building fewer cars.Porsche has something of a revenue problem. With profits falling from a touch under $6 billion in 2024 to just $101 million in 2025, Porsche needs to get its pocketbook in order. According to Porsche CEO Michael Leiters, part of the company's plan to balance its ledger includes a new mid-engine supercar. While details are still scant, we've now gotten our first teaser of that supercar.Porsche's teaser is for a concept car called the Mission S that will preview the actual production supercar. Rumors suggest that the production version will be powered by a flat-eight engine, while Porsche confirmed that the Mission S's architecture will allow for a full model line positioned above the 911, which has served as the brand's golden goose for several decades.While Porsche has dabbled (rather successfully) in halo cars in the past, the brand has never unseated the 911 from its place at the top of its lineup, making the prospect of the Mission S monumental. Assuming that's the route Porsche takes, the new car could be positioned against the likes of the Ferrari 849 Testarossa and the McLaren 750S. The Mission S is scheduled to be revealed on October 15, at which point we will hopefully learn more about the future supercar.➡️ Skip the lot.
