Performance was predictably spectacular – Car and Driver recorded figures of 0–60 mph in 2.2 seconds, 0–100 mph in 4.9 seconds, 0–180 mph in 17.5 seconds, and the quarter mile in 9.8 seconds. Top speed was 215 mph.
The 918 Spyder’s 6.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack delivers an all-electric range of 12 miles and made use of “active regeneration” harvesting energy during braking. Extensive use of exotic metals and carbon fibre for the tub and body resulted in an all up weight of 1674 kgs – which for a hybrid with 2 motors was a technical tour de force. In addition to 4 wheel drive, the 918 featured 4 wheel steering which improved cornering, handling and stability.
The roof was removable and could be stored in the front luggage compartment – bringing the driver closer to the fantastic sound of the high revving naturally aspirated V8 race bred engine.
The 918 Spyder was first shown as a concept at the 80th Geneva Motor Show in March 2010. On 28 July 2010, after 2,000 declarations of interest, the supervisory board of Porsche AG approved series development of the 918 Spyder. The production version was unveiled at the September 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. Production began on 18 September 2013, with deliveries initially scheduled to begin in December 2013, and a starting price of £711,000. The 918 Spyder was sold out in December 2014 and production ended in June 2015.
An option costing a further £60,000 was the Weissach Package – which was essentially an upgrade with serious “lightweighting” at it’s core – the package included:
918 Spyder Magnesium Wheels + Exposed Carbon Fibre Roof + Rear Wing + Front Splitter + Rear Aero Winglets + Many Other Lightweight Features
Naturally the Weissach package is the most desirable variant and accounted for 25% of production.
