> The iconic shape and design of the 911 is dictated by its engine placement. The engine placement only made some characteristics possible (e.g. the low bonnet). If the shape and design were "dictated" by the engine placement, surely other cars with rear engine would have to look similar? > I feel with an electric drivetrain, a new design would be needed. Why change something that clearly works? Experiments like the i3 can go very wrong.
