2015 Porsche 918 Spyder

FIRST DRIVE REVIEW
Comedian Louis c.K. commonly known as bit performance makes summed early said a statement: ". Everything is amazing and nobody happy" (Go ahead and now Google it, but to us, we will come back to talk Beware YouTube wormhole.!) She's talking about personal technology, but perspective, it is also true for today's auto industry. Take a minute to count blessings in today's world as a car enthusiast and you'll realize quickly that we needed a long moment.

We Miatas and BRZ / FR-Ss, GTIs and Focus STs, with a 300-hp V-6 Mustang (400-hp V-8s), 495 hp Jaguar roadster, 11 seconds of the Mercedes-Benz station wagon and a handful of 10s (sometimes and even closer to exotic) exotics. Also 200 miles sedan, good things are strange things-short, there is no shortage of something for everyone. This, plus forums, eBay talk about these things and bring them to buy a trailer and allow us to experience the realistic dreams we can not afford to have a mind-blowing video game generation. However, it is likely to be somewhat gloomy mood in the automotive field. We yearn for the good old days, or more often for fear of the evil to come. Diesel and hybrid and EVs coming and they're going all messed up.


Except they do not, so you can put away sad trombone. Million dollar, 900-hp hybrid hypercar: all the other great things coming on top of a curious new phenomenon. Want to go a good job even more proof? Over the past decade, many companies quit making minivans, but three different cars to create this insane now hybrids. We've yet LaFerrari Ferrari or McLaren P1 drivers, but we just climbed out of the Porsche 918 Spyder and hybrids can be quite great tactics.

Hybrid Ambassador
918 under the bonnet of the hole puttering away any family-hybrid-esque Atkinson cycle four. Instead of modern engine technology, high-output V-8 bristling, think. Porsche RS Spyder engine Le Mans winner says that the derived class, but you really have in this case "derived" need to stretch the definition. In large part, RS Spyder has the 3.4-liter and one partnerships between 918 4.6 both flat plane crank and 90 degree V angle and two 90 degree on eight cylinders saying Vees be shared implies there is a root must be both goatees because cousins ​​you and Billy as claimed by Joel.

However, the mill race car any less Porsche 918 engine shares little ones, if he shares a little bit. For starters, the reverse breathing. Outside air enters and heads and is finished in the valley. Then wind their way into the rear of the car, rather than just confused spent gases ball mounted aft of the head immediately go into the sky from a couple of clicks. In this case you pretty much muffling by room, there is not ours, not to mention a blessing driver alertness. Block and head connecting rods, titanium, aluminum, Inconel, and exhaust system, and super-light is expensive nickel-based alloy. Internals light and kept flat crank V-8 9150 rpm, as we felt compelled to apologize intensive, which means that emits a cry of pure rage speed rev. (V-8 still continued to cry.)


+ 930 = 918 Turbo Carrera GT Spyder
V-8 limited-edition Porsche's previous flagship, three more 608 horsepower Carrera GT, it does. But then by two electric motors 918, another former flagship output roughly 930 Turbo adds. V-8 and a wedge between the seven-speed PDK gearbox; Other front and aft cargo sits. The battery pack sits low in carbon-fiber monocoque passenger behind. Engines and motors Total system output 887 horsepower and maximum torque of 944 lb-ft sits. 2.6 second 0-to-60-mph time we were not able to gather instrumented test data (918 from the motor and for more details about its operation. Here coach Don Sherman prototype drive control), but the figure and about 10 straight quarter-mile time . And, if so, the 918 Spyder Nürburgring production car ever missed the first seven minutes to break the barrier. Not only that, the Porsche drivers were also told to be careful and insist that they say they can do better than 6:57 stamped into the record books. Hybrid Chalk one up for the Goodwill.

He is dead under full throttle them out if they could clean rip, because it feels 918 seats up to something good back compartment. If you ground it is always your first (or next) to get a preview of a face lift. pull brutal. Two different types of electric motors in two different speed, a gas V-8 in the thread, and the Porsche seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, showing all concert activities, the road is among the most advanced powertrains. But the power flow between the occupants of the motor and engine feel no transition. For the end user, it just feels incredibly fast and incredibly smooth. Not since we discovered asteroids browser window QWOP and we are very happy with the computers.

Yes, We Are One good
Were actually concerned with keeping this car seat anchored Porsche creates overwhelming g forces in all directions, because all parties would have had on the outskirts of light bucket. What is really amazing, though, how approachable supernatural powers this car. We Porsche's Nürburgring-pilot 7:27 session by its own test drive, the 911 Turbo S-no slouch himself behind Spain's 2.5-mile Circuit de Valencia buried. 911 Turbo S knowledge of his lap time to squeeze every millisecond, while manhandled around the track assembly, we lack the necessary effort to stay his bumper a little bored, flounced along behind.
