Porsche - Conventional Powertrains

Conventional Powertrains

It is not all about displacement, power, consumption and emissions. It is also a question of reliability, cost optimization, space and weight. Sportier, more environmentally friendly, more powerful, economical and inexpensive to produce ─ the many demands on modern engines are more contradictory than ever. Yet within these conflicts are the inherent challenges that lead to innovation.

Porsche Engineering does not confine itself exclusively to the development of sports car engine, but the skills we apply to that does flow into the development of other engines.

Need a motorcycle powertrain? Or perhaps a motor for industrial applications? We develop everything from single-cylinder units to multi-cylinder, high-performance designs. From completely new developments to new applications. As a volume manufacturer, we consider all aspects of production, large-scale or small.
