Simple and to the point, this new collab essentially staples the front half of a Porsche car onto what looks like a space-flight ready American stealth bomber, then gives it some extra cannons near the cockpit for good measure, as well as an astromech droid slot directly behind the pilot.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Fine German starship engineering. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Porsche?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Porsche<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/starwars?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@StarWars<\/a>: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TheRiseOfSkywalker?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TheRiseOfSkywalker<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/IXQLH34xgO\">pic.twitter.com\/IXQLH34xgO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Porsche (@Porsche) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Porsche\/status\/1206761042233085952?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 17, 2019<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The direct fusion comes across better than one might think, adding a unique flat aesthetic to the starship\u2019s bow that isn\u2019t seen much elsewhere in <em>Star War<\/em>s. Similarly, the car-like headlights give the fighter a cute, somewhat rounded appearance. These Earth-native design features help give the Pegasus a friendly demeanor, giving the audience something familiar to latch onto while they explore the galaxy far, far away.<\/p>\n<p>According to Chiang, \u201cThis collaboration is an amazing opportunity to merge the design aesthetics of Porsche and <em>Star Wars<\/em>. I found it to be creatively challenging and extremely inspiring. It is thrilling to infuse <em>Star Wars<\/em> with Porsche styling to create an iconic new spaceship that could exist both on Earth in the cinematic universe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of spaceships existing on Earth, it seems Porsche isn\u2019t quite done melding their design sensibilities with <em>Star Wars<\/em>, either. Aside from their consumer cars, Porsche also runs a Formula E team. For those unaware, Formula E is an offshoot of Formula 1 focused on electric cars, with its own unique rules to compensate. And while the Pegasus Starfighter is getting the most attention, Porsche also tweeted out another <em>Rise of Skywalker<\/em> premiere display this Monday, a new Formula E car that only \u201cknows one speed: hyperdrive.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">It knows one speed: Hyperdrive. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Porsche?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Porsche<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/starwars?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@StarWars<\/a>: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TheRiseOfSkywalker?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TheRiseOfSkywalker<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zCnZLXPR2d\">pic.twitter.com\/zCnZLXPR2d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Porsche (@Porsche) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Porsche\/status\/1206782706001956865?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 17, 2019<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not clear yet whether the Pegasus will be featured in <em>Rise of Skywalker<\/em> or if the Star Wars-style Formula E car will ever hit the circuit, but just as with Disney\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/culture\/star-wars-galaxys-edge-turns-you-into-a-resistance-spy-complete-with-real-x-wings-1813127\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">Rise of the Resistance<\/a> ride, it\u2019s equally surreal and exciting to see Star Wars technology replicated on Earth, even if we still haven\u2019t quite figured out lightsabers yet.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>More on Geek.com:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/movies\/critics-have-mixed-feelings-about-star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-1814119\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">&#8216;Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker&#8217; Receives Mediocre Reviews<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/culture\/adidas-has-one-more-star-wars-shoe-in-store-for-2019-1814257\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">Adidas Has One More Star Wars Shoe in Store for 2019<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/movies\/first-rise-of-skywalker-reactions-hit-twitter-after-hollywood-premiere-1814023\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">First &#8216;Rise of Skywalker&#8217; Reactions Hit Twitter After Hollywood Premiere<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.geek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/PorscheStarWars121919-650x366.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\"><\/p>\n<div>Porsche and Star Wars teamed up to debut a new starship and Formula E car.
