After a six-year absence, the 912 was re-introduced to North America for the 1976 model year as the 912E (internal factory designation 923). During the production run of May 1975 to July 1976, Porsche manufactured 2,092 of the 912E (E = Einspritzung), targeted only to the US market. The VW "Type 4" engine was originally made for the VW 411/412 (1.7 liters). The 912E uses a Porsche-designed revision of the engine (2.0 liters) with a longer 71mm stroke crankshaft, new rod bearings and new pistons to increase the cylinder bore to 94mm. The 912E's Bosch L-Jetronic / Air Flow Controlled system was later adapted for the 911. The 912E is an excellent long distance touring car with its 20+ gallon fuel tank, 30 mpg and 600-mile range.
The 912E has the same chassis as the 911 and therefore handles much like the 911. The E was the only 912 offered with a corrosion-resistant galvanized chassis. and is the most comfortable version of the 912.
There's nothing in the 912 that doesn't need to be there, and that's one of the most attractive parts of the whole package. It's minimalist without being devoid of comfort, and relaxed without being boring.
