You have to remember that the 959 was a purpose built rally car, it was a modified AWD 911 with more power and experimental technology on it that made it an absolute unit in the Dakar rally. Another thing is that the 959 has a longer rear, that’s false, it was basically just a facelifted 930 rear to fit the new stuff in the engine bay.

The real reason, as stated on the plaque in the porsche museum in Stuttgart is, that the 959 was Porsches entry into rallying and needed to be able to deal with sandy ground and bad terrain. The car has adaptable suspension for the same reason. There is only so much you can change between the production model and the race car for it to still be considered the "same car" so that's what they went with. Source: visited the museum
