"Porsche 911 Dakar Pushes Boundaries at Nürburgring and Beyond"

The Porsche 911 Dakar, a car equally suited for both the track surface and off-road areas, completed a lap at the Nürburgring while ignoring some corners. The driver seamlessly transitioned between pavement and grass, achieving a lap time of 7:39.40. Although not representative of the car's normal performance, it demonstrates the speed a professional can achieve in a car designed for professional-level driving. The 911 Dakar's time is comparable to laps by the Lexus LF-A, Porsche Carrera GT, and Bugatti Veyron. The Sport Auto team celebrated by setting up camp on a hill overlooking the circuit using a functional roof tent attached to the car.

"Off-Road Showdown: Porsche 911 Dakar Takes on Taycan, GTS, Macan, and Cayenne"

Chris Harris tests the Porsche 911 Dakar, which is based on the 911 Carrera 4 GTS and features a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine producing 473 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. Harris notes the car's superb chassis balance, excellent steering, and loud exhaust. He suggests it might even be more fun to drive than the 911 GT3. However, with a starting price of $223,450, it's more expensive than the Porsche 911 GT3 and GT3 RS.
