The Porsche 911E continued as the midrange 911 for the 1970 and 1971 model years, fitting between the contemporaneous 2.2L 911T and the 2.2L 911S. As with the T and S variants, Porsche would upgrade the 911E to a larger 2.2 liter engine. The 2.2L engine in the 911E, Type 911/01 or Type 911/04 with Sportomatic, featured mechanical fuel injection (“E” denotes 'Einspritzung', being German for “injection”), and was rated at 155 hp. During its production years it was available as a 2.2L 911E Coupe and a 2.2L 911E Targa. Vehicles from this period with significant modifications will be found in the 911E custom (1970 to 1971) market. For model year 1972, the 2.2L 911E was replaced by the 2.4L 911E.
