Porsche 914

Porsche 914

The Porsche 914 was a joint development between Porsche and Volkswagen and was the new Porsche entry-level model as of model year 1970.

The two-seater, also known as the "VW Porsche", was a mid-engine Sports Car. Striking design features included the very long wheelbase for the vehicle length, short overhangs, the removable roof centre panel made from glass fibre-reinforced plastic as well as the wide safety bar. The 914 also featured pop-up headlights.

At the time of its launch, the 914 was available with two engines.
914: 1.7-litre flat-four engine with 80 hp from Volkswagen
914/6: 2.0-litre flat-six engine with 110 hp from the Porsche 911 T
These were followed by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with 100 hp based on the 1.7-litre engine in MY 1973 and a 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine with 85 hp in MY 1974.

In the four-cylinder models the ignition lock was located on the right. The wheels of the 914 were mounted with four wheel nuts. The standard 914 model (914/4) was produced by body maker Karmann in Osnabrück.
