The Porsche 911 Dakar stands as a testament to our deeply ingrained desire to push boundaries all while embracing adventure. Limited to just 2,500 units, this exclusive model not only showcases the versatility of the iconic Porsche 911 but also pays homage to Porsche’s legendary victory at the 1984 Paris-Dakar Rally.
At the heart of the Porsche 911 Dakar is a three-liter biturbo six-cylinder engine that delivers 473 horsepower and 419 lf-ft of torque. Paired with an eight-speed PDK transmission and Porsche all-wheel drive, this powerhouse goes from zero to 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds.
Another notable feature of the Porsche 911 Dakar is its impressive ground clearance. It rests 50 millimeters higher than the 911 Carrera with sports suspension. It’s also built with a standard lift system and therefore is capable of raising both the front and rear ends an additional 30 millimeters.
Designed for commanding power on all surfaces, specially developed Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires ensure optimal traction, even in unforgiving terrain. Complementing its off-road prowess, the Porsche 911 Dakar comes standard with rear-axle steering and engine mounts from the 911 GT3 and PDCC anti-roll stabilization ensuring dynamic performance both on and off the road.
For enthusiasts seeking the ultimate rally-inspired experience, the Porsche 911 Dakar offers an optional Rallye Design Package, reminiscent of the iconic winning car from the 1984 Paris-Dakar Rally. This package features a distinctive two-tone paint finish, rally stripes and personalized race numbers, all which honour its racing heritage.
Inside the cabin, the Porsche 911 Dakar exudes sporting prowess with standard full bucket seats and Race-Tex surfaces. Lightweight materials enhance performance while the optional Rallye Sport Package adds distinctive race-inspired elements like a roll-over bar and six-point seat belts.
For those looking to complete the ultimate Dakar experience, Porsche offers the exclusive Porsche Design Chronograph, crafted with scratch-resistant titanium carbide housing, perfectly complementing the adventurous spirit of the Porsche 911 Dakar. It’s truly a sight to be seen.
From its powerful performance to its iconic design, the Porsche 911 Dakar represents the pinnacle of luxury and adventure from front fender to rear.
