Forrest Jones meets Porsche's "big brother" to the 911

His Mission S walkaround has passed three million views, but a question about what powers it gets a notably brief answer.

The Porsche Mission S is the BIG BROTHER to the 911. 😎

Forrest Jones points to the Porsche Mission S's roof intake and asks whether it will cool a flat-eight engine. Frank Wiesmann, identified as Porsche's product communications representative, keeps the answer short: "Not decided yet."

That exchange leaves an important detail open in a walkaround packed with things Jones can actually demonstrate. He introduces the mid-engine sports car as a model Porsche wants to place permanently above the 911, then works his way from hood vents and distinctive wheels to the exposed cooling fans at the rear.

The Short has passed three million views, with an estimated first-day audience more than six times the channel's usual Shorts start. Its comments are also several times busier than usual, and much of the conversation concerns something the cabin leaves out.

There is no built-in infotainment touchscreen. Instead, Jones pulls out a magnetic phone mount, then shows the physical climate and vehicle toggles. Viewers discuss whether that simpler arrangement could age better than a dashboard dominated by screens; others draw connections between the rear styling and the Porsche 918 Spyder.

It isn't an entirely screen-free retreat, though. Jones demonstrates a digital instrument cluster that pares back its display in track mode, leaving only the information needed for driving.
