The Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo takes on the most exciting passages.

In 2018, Porsche enters the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, one of the oldest and most demanding hill climbs in the world, with a class of its own for the first time. The drivers contest the race to the 4,302-meter summit in eight Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport. 9:11 Magazine on the road in the Rocky Mountains – with fascinating tidbits from the history of the “race to the clouds.”

A Porsche that can float? Chapter 4 [07:33] looks back at the development of the first Porsche all-terrain vehicle with all-wheel drive. In 1955, Porsche answered the German Bundeswehr’s tender with the Type 597 Jagdwagen. It was a perfect all-terrain vehicle. With a 50-hp flat-four engine, engageable front-wheel drive and tipping the scales at just 870 kilograms, it was all but unstoppable – be it on land or water. Thanks to its tub-like body, in a transport convoy the 597 could also traverse rivers and other bodies of water.
