It was powered by an air-cooled, flat-six engine equipped with a turbocharger. In its inaugural 1976 season, the car featured a single turbocharger, but it was later upgraded to a twin-turbo setup, and the displacement was also increased. Aerodynamic improvements were also made to the body, and from the 1976 to 1981 seasons, the car brought Porsche the Manufacturers’ Championship for six consecutive years. In its debut year, 1976, the car competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans as part of the works team. The driver duo of Rolf Stommelen and Manfred Schultheiss secured the class victory.
