, which this one was originally, wasn’t slow. At the same time, it never had the kind of instant power that this one does.
The original 944 didn’t have a turbocharged engine though. Instead, it had a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that shared many components with the V8 found in the 928. Porsche recognized the need for more power early on so the 944 Turbo, internally known as the 951, was created. It made 217-horsepower before Porsche bumped it to 247hp later on, and thanks to a perfect 50/50 weight distribution, ended up being an excellent sports car.
Still, many 944 Turbo owners look for more power and in this particular case, it comes in the form ofand a 48 kWh battery pack. It delivers 300-horsepower to the rear wheels instantly with no need to wait for a turbo to spool up. What’s perhaps even more shocking is that the team at Electric Classic Cars managed to keep the total weight of the car nearly identical to the original figure. We don’t get specific figures but they reiterate it multiple times online.
