About the model The Porsche 914 was a joint venture between Porsche and VW.
Both companies intended to sell the vehicle, but they would badge it differently depending on the market.
What precipitated by 1970 was a 914 sold with both a four-cylinder or six-cylinder engine under the Porsche crest in North America.
The car began with a 1.
7L H4 and evolved to a 1.
8L H4, and finally, a 2.
0L flat-four-cylinder.
A six-cylinder powerplant was also offered, aptly named the 914/6; it only lasted until 1973, when it was upgraded to the 2.
0L flat-four motor that was more efficient.
What set the 914 apart was the mid-rear placement of the engine and the tiny packaging of the body, combined with independent suspension.
The car handled well, and its Targa top made it versatile in all climates.
The 914 ended production in 1976.
