“This hybrid technology has two reasons: one is CO2, but another reason for us for this technology is sportiness. As we have proved in the 918 Spyder … it can work”, says Matthias Muller. Porsche 918 hybrid Spyder scheme — on the picture above.
The automaker plans to equip each of its current models with a hybrid power unit, making the prospects of Porsche 911 hybrid more likely.
