Porsche has recently released the first official images and details of the all-new 918 Spyder.
Developed to rival the Ferrari Enzo successor, the pre-production prototype is powered with a hybrid powertrain which includes a 562 hp 4.6-liter V8 engine, a 107 hp electric motor on the front axle and a 121 hp electric motor on the rear axle. As such, the supercar has a combined output in excess of 770 hp.
According to the German carmaker, the 918 Spyder can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than 3 seconds and hit a top speed in excess of 325 km/h. In terms of efficiency, the car will return 3.0-liter per 100 km (78.4 mpg) with CO2 emissions of roughly 70 g/km. In full electric mode, it can travel at least 25 km.
The Porsche 918 Spyder will enter production in September 2013 and the first deliverers are expected to commence before the year ends. The model will start at $845,000 in the U.S. and costs €645,000 in Europe.
