As quoted from Motor1, L'Art de L'automobile does not explain in detail about the powertrain, output or performance. And as we all know the majority of standard Porsche 968 cars are powered by a naturally aspirated 3.0-liter four-cylinder engine, which is capable of producing around 237 horsepower (177 kilowatts) and torque of 225 pound-feet (305 Newton-meters), besides that there're 14 units powered by turbocharged engines capable of pumping out 305 hp (227 kW) and 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque.
Looking back at the automaker's background, it's clear that the Porsche 968 L'Art was designed to meet the style only not the speed with new doors and tiny mirrors and rear wheels under an emerald color-coded lid. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | L'ART DE L'AUTOMOBILE | ID.MOTOR1 | CARBUZZ HIGHSNOBIETY ]
