Porsche supercar ready to take on Ferrari 458 Italia, to be unveiled at LA Motor Show

Earlier this week, Porsche had revealed that they are on the verge of unveiling their all new 911 Carrera and a new super car. Both these cars will be unveiled by Porsche at the LA Motor Show next week. Porsche plans on launching their new supercar priced above the 911 model but below the 918 supercar. This new Porsche supercar will be manufactured at their plant in Germany and will carry a price tag of approximately between €250,000 and €400,000.

The architecture of the new Porsche supercar is based on the same architecture on which the Auti R8 prototype e-tron is built.Audi displayed R8 e-tron prototype at the Frankfurt Motor Show earlier this year. Rumor has it that VW will use the same architecture to build the next Lambo Gallardo variant.

On the engine front, it is still not clear whether Porsche will install their own engine or borrow R8's next gen engine. If Porsche borrows Audi R8's 4.0L V8 engine, which has a maximum output capacity of 520 PS and 650 Nm torque, they will surely be uptuning the engine to generate more power and torque.
