Porsche has laid out its plans, and for owners who follow the marque closely, the headline is scarcity: more limited versions of the 911 are on the way, and the company is weighing a new supercar to sit at the top of its range. The plan also adds new combustion-engined sport utility vehicles to the lineup. The same outline makes clear that future 718 models will not be offered with a gasoline engine. For collectors deciding which Porsche to watch, the 911 is the car to follow, along with whatever shape that top-of-the-range model finally takes.
