This is not only a testament to how versatile the 911 is if you’re creative but also how feasible eFuels are, even for more “outside of the box” driving scenarios. If it can propel a car up the side of a volcano in subzero temperatures, it can probably handle motorsport and daily use. Porsche states that the eFuels made by HIF eFuels in Chile were almost carbon neutral, meaning that the production process (almost) canceled out the carbon emitted by the car itself.

There’s still a long road ahead to get eFuels in the tanks of everyone’s cars, and there’s always the question of capacity and production capability. In the meantime, you can’t help but marvel at the fact that someone drove a lifted Porsche 911 up the side of a volcano and managed to break a world record on the way up. It’s worth noting that the driver, Romain Dumas, won the famously grueling 24 Hours of Le Mans race three times, so going off-roading in a Porsche was probably just another weekend excursion for him.
