2026 Singer DLS Turbo Sorcerer
By Lorenzo Bianchi January 22, 2026
Sorcerer is the first completed Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer using DLS Turbo services.
Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre flat-six producing over 700 hp and revving beyond 9,000 rpm.
The car is restored around an original Type 964 monocoque and fully personalized for its owner.
A New Chapter in Singer’s DLS Story
The 2026 Singer DLS Turbo Sorcerer marks a significant moment for Singer Vehicle Design. It is the first customer car completed under the company’s DLS Turbo services, reuniting a deeply reimagined Porsche 911 with its owner after a full, ground-up restoration. As with many Singer projects, the name came early in the process. “Sorcerer” reflects the owner’s vision rather than a factory designation, reinforcing the personal nature of every Singer build.
Design Inspired by Racing Heritage
Visually, Sorcerer is rooted in late-1970s endurance racing. Lightweight carbon-fibre bodywork is inspired by the rare Porsche 934.5, giving the car a purposeful stance defined by a deep front spoiler and a raised, track-focused rear wing. The finish is Fantasia Blue, applied with a graduated effect that darkens toward the rear, while lower exterior surfaces are left in satin carbon fibre. Seven-spoke magnesium centre-lock wheels, finished in Champagne, underline both the motorsport influence and the attention to detail.
Turbocharged Performance with DLS Roots
At the heart of Sorcerer sits a reworked flat-six based on the original Type 964 engine. Displacement grows to 3.8 litres, with four valves per cylinder, twin turbochargers using variable turbine geometry, and a combination of water-cooled cylinder heads and air-cooled cylinders. An electrically powered horizontal fan supports thermal control. Output is quoted at over 700 hp and 750 Nm of torque, with a rev limit exceeding 9,000 rpm. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox, reinforcing Singer’s commitment to driver involvement even at this performance level.
Chassis, Control, and Driver Confidence
The restoration is built around the owner’s original Type 964 steel monocoque, which is stripped, assessed, and reinforced to improve rigidity. Modern electronic systems developed with Bosch bring ABS, traction control, and electronic stability control, all adjustable through selectable drive modes. Suspension uses a double-wishbone layout at the front with lightweight trailing arms at the rear. Braking is handled by carbon-ceramic discs, while Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres are fitted to 19-inch front and 20-inch rear forged magnesium wheels. A nose-lift system adds everyday usability.
Interior Tailored to the Owner
Inside, Sorcerer reflects Singer’s watch-like approach to detail. Seats are trimmed in Pebble Grey leather with Pearl Grey Alcantara centres and Champagne piping. Bright interior trim is finished in Champagne, paired with satin carbon fibre for the lower cabin. Floating gauges with Champagne bezels reinterpret the familiar 911 layout, while technology such as navigation and phone connectivity is integrated discreetly. A rear cross-brace sits behind the driver, underscoring the car’s track-ready intent.
Positioning Within Singer’s Lineup
DLS Turbo represents Singer’s most ambitious technical program to date, building on lessons learned from earlier DLS projects. Sorcerer stands as proof of concept and capability, showing how turbocharging, high-rev performance, and analogue engagement can coexist within a deeply personal restoration.
