A Modern Interpretation of 1950s Style... 911 Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition

The elegantly and lavishly designed exterior, reinterpreted in a modern way, reflects the design elements of the 992 model generation. Compared to the previous generation, the front wheel housings are more pronounced, and the bonnet between the LED headlights evokes the original 911 design. The rear completes the design with a wider and extended rear spoiler and a smoothly integrated elegant light bar.


The interior is reminiscent of the 911 Carrera model, featuring a concave instrument panel dashboard inspired by the 1970s 911 models, characterized by a clear and long straight design. Porsche's signature central tachometer provides the driver with expanded information through two thin, frameless displays.

The 1963 Porsche crest on the bonnet, steering wheel, wheel centers, and car key emphasize the connection between past and present.
