The all-new Porsche 911 Dakar is pure power in motion, and nothing could stop us from unleashing its beastly potential.

perfectly. Likewise, the eight-speed, dual-clutch PDK and all-wheel-drive system remain unchanged from that road-going super-sports car.

The most significant change, though, is the suspension. The 911 Dakar sits 1.9 inches higher than a standard 911. But if you flip a switch on the dashboard, it gets even taller, rising an additional 1.2 inches to provide what totals 7.5 inches of ground clearance.Rossen Gargolov, courtesy of Porsche.

Those settings, plus the custom all-terrain tires from Pirelli, give the 911 Dakar unbelievable grip and performance. It flew up and over piles of soft sand and, most fun of all, allowed us to drift and slide our way between them. Dune surfing is something everyone deserves to experience at least once in their life, and the 911 Dakar is the perfect vehicle for it.Rossen Gargolov, courtesy of Porsche.

There’s even a custom, loose-surface launch-control mode. Just come to a stop, hold the brake down with one foot and push the accelerator to the floor with the other. The engine climbs and holds and then, when you release the brake, the 911 Dakar surges forward, sending a shower of rocks and dirt rearward as Newton’s Third Law demands. Physics was never more fun than this.
