Set to arrive sometime in 2019, the Porsche Mission E is currently undergoing cold weather testing in Scandinavia.
In hopes of hiding its true intentions with the Mission E, Porsche has even equipped the prototypes with fake exhaust tailpipes, but we all know better. The all-electric sedan was first shown as a concept at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show and will be the German automaker’s first EV offering.
Designed to compete directly with the Tesla Model S, Porsche is aiming for a 330-mile range with the Mission E. Reports suggest it will go zero-to-60 in about 3.5 seconds, on its way to 125 mph in under 12 seconds.

Porsche is also aiming to introduce an 800-volt charging system, that would allow owners to charge 80 percent of the Mission E’s driving range in just 15 minutes.
Official details about the Porsche Mission E are scarce, but based on the prototypes spied testing, it doesn’t appear the automaker will stray very far from the concept. Expect more information to be released next year, as the Mission E continues testing and gets ready for production.
