Joel Svensson

Team Manager IMSA Porsche Penske Motorsport

Personal take

Joel grew up in the paddock in his native Sweden, with both his parents involved in racing. He worked for several sportscar teams before joining Team Penske around 10 years ago. Starting as a car chief, he moved up to crew chief and then his current role four years ago, joining the Porsche Penske Motorsport project in January 2024. His day-to-day work includes heading up the operational side of the IMSA project, logistics, hiring and much more.

I was born and raised in the racing industry back home in Sweden and came to America in 2007. I started working for a couple of different sportscar teams, and joined Penske about 10 years ago.

* All new vehicles offered by Porsche are type-approved according to WLTP. Official NEDC values derived from WLTP values are no longer available for new vehicles as of 1 January 2023 and can therefore not be provided.

Where values are indicated as ranges, they do not refer to a single, specific vehicle and are not part of the offered product range. They are only for the purposes of comparison between different vehicle tyrpes. Additional equipment and accessories (add-on parts, tyre formats etc.) can change relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics. These factors, in addition to weather, traffic conditions and driving behaviour, can influence the fuel/electricity consumption, CO₂ emissions, range and performance values of a vehicle.

More information about the differences between WLTP and NEDC is available at www.porsche.com/wltp.
