In terms of comfort, Porsche promises greater interior space thanks in part to the location of the electric powertrain and battery packs. The front and rear suicide doors open out to create greater access to the cabin, which seats four passengers, each of whom will have their own bucket-seat in the high-end interior.

The driver's head up display is curved and features five different dials giving different information. At the center are two screens that give the driver control over everything from audio to navigation.

Overall, the Porsche Mission E retains a supercar-like exterior with its aggressive profile while at the same time provides the power worthy of its looks. As for price, the vehicle is expected to start around $75,000 and $80,000 when it goes on sale in 2019.
