Porsche Press Information I received today ...

Michael Macht, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, presented the Porsche 918 Spyder concept car at its world debut this evening in Geneva. This mid-engined two-seater combines the performance of a super-sports car with the CO2 emissions of a small compact, an innovative plug-in hybrid concept reducing emissions to just 70 grams CO2 per kilometre and fuel consumption to 3.0 litres/100 kilometres (94 mpg imp). Within this concept Porsche combines a V8 power unit delivering more than 500 hp and three electric motors with overall output of 160 kW.

In its design and interior architecture, the Porsche 918 Spyder combines classic elements with appropriate solutions for the future. Starting on Tuesday, March 2nd, at 8:15 am (CET), the Porsche 918 Spyder will also be presented at the Porsche Stand in Hall 6 of the Palexpo Building during the Geneva Motor Show.

I suppose I will be receiving a letter from Porsches attorney now about using the 918. I think I had it first. Maybe I should send them a letter!

BTW: THAT is the future forward for the 914! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Looks hot.

That's two in a row now; that coupe design based on the Panamera that had a hint of the 599 GTB at the front, and now this with a front end nod to the 458 Italia.

Who says Germans and Italians can't play together.

I would say Tesla beater.

This car seems to be aimed at the 'green' crowd, and those people that have the money for this car, also have money for the Tesla roadster or the Fisker Karmin. And those two companies are leading the pack in 'green' sports cars. I got a ride in a tesla (the headquarters is in my city) and it was fuching amazing, felt like a rollercoaster.

Purdy,

What's with the twin dark snorkly things over the engine.

Seem way too small for decent V-8 airflow and if they are intakes, they will provide a lot of induction noise to the cab area.

Mebbe they are twin electrodes to get the car charged,

Mebbe they are a surfboard rack.

Mebbe they are a hanger so you can hang the car from the garage ceiling.

In any event, they look kinda slapped on.
