It's weird in the sense that it feels like backpedaling after years of bold EV proclamations, but it's also pragmatic for a brand whose identity is so tied to driver engagement. Enthusiasts are cheering the ICE lifeline, while others see it as Porsche finally listening to the market instead of forcing a timeline. If conditions flip again (e.g., battery costs drop sharply or regulations tighten), they could lean harder into EVs—but right now, this dual-path approach looks like the new normal for the 718.
