This is a group of people who were up in arms when the 996 911 had those &#8216;fried-egg&#8217; headlights and figuratively drew pitchforks when the Cayenne was first revealed. But it&#8217;s really the 911 crowd that is generally the least receptive to any suggestion of something revolutionary.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiegorelocationnews.com\/index.php\/2026\/06\/14\/waymo-robotaxis-are-driving-san-francisco-condo-residents-mad\/\">Waymo Robotaxis Are Driving San Francisco Condo Residents Mad<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>So you can probably imagine the collective gasp, and possibly disgust, over supposed plans to eventually introduce an all-electric 911. Granted, it won&#8217;t happen immediately, but we can imagine that bit of news sent shivers down the Porsche faithful&#8217;s spines.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>The CEO Weighs In<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Porsche CEO Michael Leiters recently went on record saying the Taycan was probably released too soon. While he didn&#8217;t elaborate further, it suggests that the company is taking it a little easier on future EV projects. However, that wasn&#8217;t the only thing that the executive had mentioned.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Translated from German, Leiters said, &#8220;We will continue to invest in electric mobility, but a 911 will not become electric; its future viability must be ensured through combustion engines and hybrid technology.&#8221; That was said during a recent panel interview hosted by German automotive publication <em>Auto Motor und Sport<\/em>. We can hear the collective sigh of relief from here.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiegorelocationnews.com\/index.php\/2026\/06\/14\/week-in-photos-world-cup-arrives-rto-cat-tour-graduation-first\/\">Week in photos: World Cup arrives + RTO + cat tour + graduation first<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<h2>No to EVs, but Hybrids&#8230;<\/h2>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The purists can celebrate the fact that their favorite rear-engined sports car will still have pistons for a very long time. That said, there&#8217;s still the reality of the 911 adapting to ever-tightening regulations in the future. Like it or not, a greater degree of electrification will be applied to the 911 down the line.<\/p>\n<p><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>Porsche currently has the T-Hybrid system, and it&#8217;s reserved for the GTS for now. But while it&#8217;s electrified, the hybrid system actually does nothing to raise those MPGs. Instead, it&#8217;s more of an electric boost system that raises performance. Perhaps calling it a hybrid is a bit of a stretch, but it does show that the company can deliver the 911 experience with an electric twist.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>For now, Porsche has rejected the idea of a plug-in hybrid version of the 911. Given the sports car&#8217;s slow evolution, we might see a full-hybrid version come out first, before any sockets and cables get involved.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/sandiegorelocationnews.com\/index.php\/2026\/06\/14\/how-firestone-walker-went-from-a-vineyard-shed-to-a-global-craft-beer-brand\/\">How Firestone Walker went from a vineyard shed to a global craft beer brand<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p><i>Copyright 2026 The Arena Group, Inc.
