2014 Porsche 918 Spyder (Forzathon)

Forget everything you have ever thought about hybrids before you consider the 918 Spyder. It is the culmination of years of research and technical prowess from the first company that ever sported a prancing horse on its badge. The 918 Spyder is the starting point of a new era of performance and has raised the bar of what can be expected of a car, even a hypercar. Nearly 900 combined horsepower from its 4.6-liter naturally-aspirated flat crank V8 and hybrid electrical system and built almost completely of carbon fiber make it a technological marvel. The 918 Spyder already set a production car lap record at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and shattered the production car record at the Nürburgring by 14 seconds. It is visually stunning in all regards and distinctly Porsche even though it looks like no other Porsche ever. The blank sheet of paper 918 designers started with produced innovations in every direction and convention was left by the wayside. The result is nothing less that the spark of a new generation of the highest performing vehicles the world has ever seen
