Porsche 918 Spyder First Drive on EVO

EVO TV Harry Matcalfe Porsche 918
Evo Director, Harry Matcalfe takes a ride in the latest upcoming Porsche supercar, the 918 Spyder. The 918 Spyder is the ultimate Porsche supercar since the Carrera GT almost ten years ago. You might therefore be quite surprised that it's a hybrid!

Yup that's right the 918 Spyder is a powered by a hybrid engine. Don't for a second think this has anything in common with the likes of the dreadful Prius. The engine itself has been re-rated at 585 horsepower and then for a little bit extra "oomph", two electric motors bump the power up to around 795 horsepower. That's serious power for relatively light-weight, little supercar.

Check out the video below for yourself.
