Porsche AG will stage the world premiere of a parallel full hybrid model at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.
The world premiere in Geneva is being complemented by the 918 RSR hybrid racing car concept, making its first public appearance in front of a European audience. The mid-engine coupé combines the design of the 918 Spyder with the technology of the 911 GT3 R hybrid racing car.
The V8 engine in the 918 RSR is a further development of the direct injection engine from the successful RS Spyder race car and now offers an output of 563 hp (420 kW) at 10,300 rpm in the 918 RSR. The electric motors on the two front wheels each contribute 75 kW to the peak drive power of 767 hp (572 kW). This additional power, which is generated during braking, is stored in an optimized flywheel accumulator.
