MONTEREY, Calif. (August 10, 2026) – The MARSIEN GT by Marc Philipp Gemballa GmbH is a high-performance, road-focused grand tourer evolving from the original Dakar-inspired MARSIEN supercar. Built on a heavily transformed Porsche 992 Turbo S chassis using approximately 1,500 custom components, it features a bespoke full carbon-fiber exterior that sheds 165 lbs (75 kg) compared to the base vehicle. Advanced aerodynamics include pneumatic active front fender louvers, a pneumatic active rear wing that acts as an air brake, a roof scoop, and a lightweight carbon-fiber underbody.
Engineered for dynamic on-road performance, the GT relies on an all-new double-wishbone front suspension paired with real-time adaptive KW DDC V5 dampers and a 2.36-inch (60 mm) front-axle nose lift for everyday drivability. Powertrain specialist RUF Automobile developed the upgraded flat-six engine to deliver 830 horsepower and 686 lb-ft (930 Nm) of torque, with a 900+ horsepower stage-two upgrade currently in development. Sound and performance are further enhanced by an Akrapovič titanium quad exhaust system.
Inside, the cabin features dark gray Alcantara, custom champagne stitching, carbon-fiber bucket seats, and a raised center console fitted with a Carrera GT-inspired aluminum shifter. Production is strictly limited to 30 custom vehicles priced at €770,000 (excluding the base Porsche), bringing total MARSIEN program production to 70 units in honor of the 70th anniversary of Uwe Gemballa. First deliveries are scheduled for late 2027 following its world premiere at Monterey Car Week 2026.
