Mark Zuckerberg Just Made A One-Off Porsche MPV For His Wife


“Priscilla wanted a minivan, so I’ve been designing something I’m pretty sure should exist: a Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT Minivan,” explains Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Meta. “Threw in a manual GT3 Touring to make it his and hers.”

Zuckerberg has pushed the boundaries of automotive design with the unveiling of his one-off Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT minivan—a brilliant fusion of high-octane performance and family-friendly practicality. This bespoke ride emerged from his desire to craft the ultimate family vehicle for his wife, Priscilla Chan, while indulging his passion for speed and luxury.

Based on the formidable Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, this unique creation features several custom modifications to enhance passenger capacity. The standout change? An extended body, lengthened by about three to four feet (1 to 1.2 meters) between the B- and C-pillars. This clever design accommodates three rows of seating for six or seven passengers, all while preserving the sleek silhouette Porsche is renowned for. The exterior flaunts a striking, glossy Arctic Grey finish, and the addition of electric sliding doors ensures easy access for everyone.

The conversion was done by the U.S.-based West Coast Customs.

Zuckerberg’s vision seamlessly marries family convenience with Porsche’s performance pedigree. While specific performance figures for this bespoke minivan are under wraps, the standard Cayenne Turbo GT boasts a roaring 650 horsepower and 850 Nm of torque. 0-100 km/h? Just 3.3 seconds. In other words, even as a minivan, this beast promises a driving experience that’s anything but ordinary.

This custom creation echoes Porsche’s 2019 Vision Renndienst concept, which pushed the boundaries of what a minivan could be with its focus on speed and versatility. While the Renndienst remained a dream, Zuckerberg’s masterpiece bridges the gap between practicality and high performance, redefining what a family vehicle can truly be.
