The son of late Porsche tuner Uwe Gemballa has picked up where his father left off, revealing a completely bespoke off-road capable supercar named Marsien.
Inspired by the legendary Paris Dakar rally era, Marc Phillipp Gemballa’s Marsien utilises design characteristics from Alan Derosier’s Porsche 908 design study and most notably, the Porsche 959 Paris Dakar.
Originally named Project Sandbox, the 992-generation Porsche 911 Turbo S-based car was manufactured in Germany, and honed off-road through the Arabian desert. The full carbon-fibre body is raised 120mm above the tarmac in on-road mode, or can be lifted to a total of 250mm above the sand in off-road mode.
