Technical Features and Performance Data of the Porsche 918 Spyder

The Porsche 918 Spyder is equipped with a 4.6-liter V8 engine working in conjunction with two electric motors, delivering a combined output of 887 horsepower (661 kW). This setup enables the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.6 seconds. The top speed is 211 mph. The car boasts a long-lasting lithium-ion battery, providing an all-electric range of up to 19 miles (31 kilometers). The hybrid drive system contributes significantly to reducing CO2 emissions and improving fuel efficiency to as low as 76 mpg (3.1 liters per 100 kilometers). The Porsche 918 was closely linked to race technology development, showcasing brand innovations that enhance the vehicle's performance and efficiency. The use of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) in the vehicle's body not only reduces weight significantly but also increases structural rigidity.
