The Marsien is a sports car produced by Marc Philipp Gemballa GmbH based on the Porsche 992 Turbo S.

Overview

[edit]

Marc Philipp Gemballa, the son of Uwe Gemballa, who founded a tuning company in 1981, presented as managing director of Marc Philipp Gemballa GmbH the Marsien, a sports car limited to 40 off-road vehicles in July 2021. It had its public premiere a month later as part of Monterey Car Week.[1] The car is inspired by the rally version of the Porsche 959.[2] In its normal state, the Marsien has a ground clearance of 12 centimetres, but this can be hydraulically increased to 25 centimeters in off-road mode. The chassis is a custom-made product specially developed for the vehicle KW Automotive . It has a double wishbone suspension at the front and a multi-link suspension at the rear.[3] The vehicle is named after the red sand deserts in the United Arab Emirates, where the Marsien was tested as a Project Sandbox. The development team reminded these deserts of the surface of the planet Mars.[4]

Specifications

[edit]

The Marsien is powered by the 3.7-liter boxer engine that came from the 911 Turbo S, which has been upgraded to 551 kW (750 hp) by Ruf Automobile.[4] The Marsien accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.6 seconds and has a top speed of 335 km/h (208 mph).
