Ars Technica reports: Porsche showed us a preview of a new model this afternoon as it unveiled the Mission S concept in New York.

It’s a mid-engined sports car that will slot into the Porsche range above the 911. But this won’t be a limited-run car like the Carrera GT or 918 Spyder—instead it will be a regular production model, part of Porsche’s plan to dig itself out of a financial hole by 2035.

This technology story centres on the United States. Names and organisations mentioned in the coverage include Porsche, Mission S and York.
