Meet Vision Safari, yet another Porsche that never found purpose in life

The German sports car maker seems to have an unlimited supply of past concepts and design studies that never made it to the mass market. This 911 Vision Safari is yet another of them.

The car was originally designed in 2012 and was successfully tested on public roads and dirt roads alike. The 911 chassis received underbody protection, heavy-duty bumpers, rally-grade suspension, LED headlights, bucket seats and a roll cage. Another interesting feature came in the form of a ventilated helmet shelf where the driver and the co-driver can put their helmets to keep them cool and sweat-free when not needed.

The other design mock-up featured in our gallery here is also called ‘Safari’, but it is SUV-shaped and lacks drivetrain. It still has plenty of mods that set it apart from the first Safari, including a new three-door body.

Watch the video for even more nostalgia-inducing Porsches that never made it past the concept stage.
