The XNUMX in the Alps at the GP Ice Race

Porsche presented the new 911 on snow and ice at unusual heights. The eighth generation of the sports car icon was recently shown at the Areit-Alm above Zell am See in Austria.

It was the first public appearance of the new Porsche 911. Unlike usual, the sports car did not climb the location in snow and ice on its own. A helicopter flew the new 1.408 up to the XNUMX meter high alpine pasture.
