The fourth and final week of High Performance is here! Not only is this your last chance to experience the Horizon Oval Circuit at the Horizon Stadium in Free Roam – don’t worry, you can still launch the dedicated Road Racing event after the series ends – but it’s also the week you can unlock the incredible 2021 Porsche Mission R. This car makes a clear statement, bringing together everything that the Porsche lineage has always set out to achieve and doing it with astounding performance numbers.

While the car is proof of concept and won’t enter production, the vision behind the all-wheel drive, lightweight and fully electric car has been to show how race cars could evolve over the next five to six years. Indeed, the Porsche Mission R, which is perfect for high-intensity sprint racing, is pioneering the future of electrified Porsche GT4 race cars with over 800 kW (1,000 horsepower), 0-62mph in less than 2.5 seconds, an overall top speed of 186mph, and super-fast charging to 80% in just 15 minutes.


Don’t miss out on securing the Mission R for 20 PTS on the Festival Playlist. You have until Thursday, May 25 to unlock it and all the other rewards available for this week only:
