The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic supercars we know till date. It is well in-line with the likes of the Lamborghini Aventador and Huracan. It is fast and furious. However, there is one thing that you never imagined the 911 to be, and that is an off-road makeover.
But that’s going to change now as Gemballa and RUF, the Porsche specialist tuners from German, have revealed two of their masterstrokes. Dubbed as the Avalanche 4x4, Gemballa tuner has given the Porsche 911 the most effective and needed makeover.
The Gemballa Avalanche 4x4 is based on the same platform as the present generation 911 but has a lot of extra additions and modifications that could make it the most suitable off-roader. To begin with, the body has been raised to a good extent to increase ground clearance. The wheel arches have also been bulked up to accommodate big and grippy tyres.
The Avalanche 4x4 also seems to have been fitted with a wide-body kit that sees the revision of the front and rear bumpers. As for the power figures, the regular Avalanche is based on the 997 Carrera and produces 672 PS of power and 925 Nm of torque. Hence, the Avalanche 4x4 is expected to have the same numbers up its sleeves. It is expected to be released in 24 months from now.
On the other hand, RUF has made a more sedated form of the Porsche 911. It is named as the Rodeo Concept and is a combination of a classic theme with limited off-roading. Exterior changes are very minimal compared to the Avalanche, though there are seemingly chunkier sand terrain tyres.
The exterior is done in a dual-tone paint job with khaki green and champagne gold. The roof had a luggage holder. There are four floodlights at the front as well, which are wrapped in brown covers.
The cabin is done in charred brown upholstery everywhere. The seats have a Navajo Indian theme pattern. Under the hood as well, there is a big 4.0-litre, 6-cylinder mill that produces 500 PS of power and 465 Nm of torque. The transmission is handled by a 6-speed gearbox.
Both the models from Gemballa and RUF are very different from each other. However, the tunes were very much required to spice things up for the Porsche 911.
