Porsche is previewing a new mid-engined supercar that would be positioned above the 911, according to Ars Technica.

A New Flagship Above the 911

The preview points to a mid-engined model occupying a slot higher in Porsche's range than the 911, per Ars Technica's report. The 911 has long been the marque's signature sports car; the newly previewed model would sit above it rather than replace it.

Mid-Engine Layout

The car is described as mid-engined, a layout that places the engine behind the cabin. Ars Technica reports that Porsche is presenting the model as a preview of its future.

What Remains Unconfirmed

Details beyond the car's mid-engined layout and its position above the 911 have not been verified. Production timing, specifications and pricing were not included in the verified information.
