One of the brightest measured on 80th anniversary car show in Geneva is the stand of a Porsche. By the German company presented the ultra-efficient, low-emission, mid-engine super sports car featuring hybrid and electric drive technology, all gathered in one car, amazing. The figures presented formally shocking, emission level of just 70 grams of CO2 per kilometer, fuel consumption of only 3 liters/100 kilometers (equal to approximately 78 mpg US). So far not found anything quite so spectacular, green car with a fuel consumption of 78 mpg,, emission of 70 g. of CO2. After having seen the data for speed and made a tour of the Nürburgring, straight I could not believe it. Acceleration from a standstill to 100 km / h (0 60 mph) in just under 3.2 seconds, top speed of 320 km / h (198 mph), and a lap time on the Nordschleife of Nürburgring in less than 7:30 minutes, faster than even the Porsche Carrera GT. Engine which drives this car is a 3.4 V8 developing more than 500 horsepower and a maximum engine speed of 9,200 rpm – as well as electric motors on the front and rear axle with overall mechanical output of 218 horsepower (160 kW). The V8 combustion engine is the next step in the evolution of the highly successful 3.4-liter power unit already featured in the RS Spyder racing car. Power is transmitted to the wheels by a seven-speed Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) transmission that feeds the power of the electric drive system to the rear axle. The front-wheel electric drive powers the wheels through a fixed transmission ratio. Electric motor is loaded from the standard grid. Driver’s choice of four distinct driving modes: a button on the steering wheel allows the driver to choose among four different running modes: The E-Drive mode is for running the car under electric power alone, with a range of up to 25 km or 16 miles. In the Hybrid mode, the 918 Spyder uses both the electric motors and the combustion engine as a function of driving conditions and requirements, offering a range from particularly fuel-efficient all the way to extra-powerful. he Porsche 918 Spyder concept also comes with further innovative functions such as the Range Manager. After being activated in the Center Display, the Range Manager uses the map in the navigation system to present the remaining range the car is able to cover, naturally allowing the driver to influence that range through the appropriate choice of power and performance. In cities with environmental alert areas the Range Manager also states whether the driver is able to reach a certain destination on electric power alone.
