Abstract
The Porsche 928 is a 2+2 sports car with a 4.5-liter-V-8 engine. The vehicle is characterised by a number of novel technical solutions and is equipped with a remarkably high proportion of aluminum parts which make up about 19 % of the overall vehicle weight and which are used in the engine, the gear box, the clutch, the chassis and the body.
