Like most automakers, Porsche needs to start stuffing batteries into its cars if it wants to meet strict European emissions laws. By 2030, [Porsche]() wants 80% of its vehicle deliveries to be electric and a huge part of that plan is the upcoming electric Cayenne, which is set to debut before the end of the decade. The first of Porsche's existing lineup to make the switch is the Macan, which will be entirely electric by 2024. After the Macan, the 718 will be the next domino to fall, likely launching both an electric Boxster and Cayman. Porsche is also working on a flagship,[ seven-seat electric SUV]()—currently codenamed K1—which will also launch sometime after 2026. Lastly, Porsche will electrify the fourth-generation Cayenne SUV by 2030, rounding out its electric SUV lineup. After the K1 becomes a reality and the Cayenne, Macan, Boxster, and Cayman all become electrified, that only leaves two piston-powered Porsches—the 911 and Panamera. However, Porsche is already said to be working on an electric Panamera, alongside the next-generation Taycan, to compete with big EV sedans like the Mercedes EQS, BMW i7, and Lucid Air. That leaves the 911 as the only gas-powered Porsche standing. ![]() Although, Porsche could be working on a hybrid 911 for the next generation. Last week, there was a report that claimed Porsche was making a[ hybrid 911 GT2 RS ]()for this generation, simply as a way to unlock the car's ultimate performance potential. Porsche hasn't officially confirmed a hybrid GT2 RS just yet but if it does happen, and it's a success, that could lead to more hybrid 911s in the future. However, Porsche CEO Oliver Blume has said in the past that the 911 will never be fully electric. Porsche's plan is to make 80% of new vehicle deliveries electric—as well as become net carbon neutral—by 2030, which clearly leaves room for internal combustion 911s. Part of its plan for net carbon neutrality is its e-fuels factory in Chile which, according to Blume, demonstrates "that e-fuels can be produced on an industrial scale.” We don't know what will happen with Porsche's e-fuel, if it's a viable solution for carbon neutral internal combustion, or if it can be successfully distributed to the masses. However, by 2030, almost every Porsche product will be electric and the upcoming Cayenne EV will complete its lineup of electric SUVs. *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
