The futuristic concept of the Porsche 908

Porsche a présenté un concept baptisé 908/04 et réalisé par un groupe de designers qui ont revisité la 908 « long tail » de 1969. Ce groupe constitué d’Alan Derosier, Marcos Beltrao, Martin Peng, Giullermo Mignot et Tom Wheatley, employés pour un constructeur chinois, ont utilisé leur passion pour la marque de Stuttgart afin de dessiner une nouvelle version de la monture allemande.

“As a designer, I chose the “long trail” version because these Porsches were truly unique, explains Alan Derosier, the project leader. Until now, as far as I know, no one has made a modern version of this car. I thought it would be a sort of revival of a myth that would bring nostalgia. »

“Porsche is one of the rare brands to have evolved while retaining a unique design and its own identity., continues Alan Derosier. I didn't want to recreate something. In my opinion, objects with complex details span the ages and that’s how I see Porsche. We worked with the idea of ​​having realistic dimensions and taking into account constraints such as driving position, visibility, door opening, width, length and height, etc. »

In order to create the Porsche 908/04, the team had to work almost two years on its project, i.e. around 5000 hours of work.
