The Spyder is powered by a naturally-aspirated 4.6 liter V8 engine, developing 608 horsepower (453 kW), with two electric motors delivering an additional 279 horsepower (208 kW) for a combined output of 887 horsepower (661 kW). The 918 Spyders 6.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack delivers an all-electric range of 12 mi (19 km) under EPAs five-cycle tests.[1] The car has a top speed of around 340 km/h (210 mph).[3]
The 918 Spyder is a limited edition sports car, with 918 units manufactured and sold as a 2014 model year. Production began on September 18, 2013, with deliveries initially scheduled to begin in December 2013.[4][5] The starting price was US$847,000.[3] The 918 Spyder was the second plug-in hybrid car from Porsche, after the 2014 Panamera S E-Hybrid.[6] The 918 Spyder was sold out in December 2014. The country with the most orders was the United States with 297 units.[7] Production ended in June 2015.[8]
The 918 Spyder was first shown as a concept at the 80th Geneva Motor Show in March 2010.[4] The production version was unveiled at the September 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show.[9] Porsche also unveiled the RSR racing variant of the 918 at the 2011 North American International Auto Show, which combines hybrid technology first used in the 997 GT3 R Hybrid, with styling from the 918 Spyder.
