First Looks at Porsche 929
by Mollie Lichy
Juliana Cho is a genius when it comes to designing eco-conscious, sleek, futuristic cars. The people at Porsche were smart (and very lucky) when they hired Ms. Cho as an intern. The Masters student who studies at the Royal College of Art has come up with a design for a new Porsche, the Porsche 929. Special features of this car include an electrically powered engine, suicide doors and a unique parking mechanism. Because of the car’s prestige and rarity, it will be exclusive to a members only group in which members will share a fleet of cars. An individual charging outpost will be available to 929 drivers only. The car is in the beginning stages of design, but hopefully Cho’s innovative idea makes it to production!
