Porsche will produce a combustion engined 911 for 'as long as possible', likely with the help of e-fuels car auto cars
. The automaker hopes that the EU will allow sales of combustion vehicles using e-fuels after 2035. However, experts suggest that e-fuels, which are currently aimed at the aviation and heavy vehicle industries, will be more suitable for niche products like high-end supercars and hypercars due to their high price.
Despite emitting CO2, e-fuels can be carbon-neutral thanks to their production process which includes captured carbon dioxide and renewably-sourced hydrogen. Porsche has already invested over $100 million in the energy company from Chile, which aims to start construction of the world’s largest e-fuels plant in 2024 in Matagorda, Texas.alongside smaller-scale manufacturers like Morgan and BAC might have resorted to e-fuels, but mainstream automakers will likely keep ignoring them in favor of electrification. According to Reuters, Pitchbook reports that major automakers have already invested $1.2 trillion for electrification, while e-fuel startups have attracted less than $1 billion in investments.
