might not sound like any race car we've ever driven, the same advice applies: Wear earplugs. From inside it sounds like you're sitting next to a washing machine with a bad bearing as it kills itself during a spin cycle. Credit the two straight-cut reduction gears that transmit power to mechanical limited-slip differentials.
Hitting the brakes really makes the thing scream. Like every EV, the Mission R's two electric motors work to convert speed into electricity through regenerative braking. As the motors fight against the car's inertia, the noise cavitates your eardrums. As a result of the aggressive regen, the friction brakes are barely stressed. Porsche doesn't even fit dedicated brake ducts.
Properly slowed, the Mission R turns in instantly with a small movement from the yoke. In goes the nose and then it tucks into the bend. Suddenly, the straightaway calls and it's time to send the battery's juice to the motors. The two motors thrust the horizon into the foreground and strain your neck in a way that will lead to a funny conversation with your physical therapist. The 1073 horsepower is available in Qualifying mode, but in Race mode peak power is 671 horses.
