Overview of this 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder used for sale

In this vehicle, two electric motors generate a combined 286 horsepower, setting a benchmark for production hybrid motors globally. The hybrid battery, a high-performance lithium-ion variant, is liquid-cooled and offers an instant power boost to the electric motors. It can be recharged through a conventional power source and charging lead or even while the vehicle is in motion. In a unique scenario, the vehicle's kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy by the electric motors. Moreover, one of the electric motors can act as a generator when driven by the engine, replenishing the hybrid battery. This enables driving in pure electric mode or harnessing additional energy for enhanced track performance. When connected to a 240v supply, the standard charging time is approximately two hours.

The combined power output reaches nearly 900 horsepower, thanks to a 4.6-liter V8 engine that delivers an unforgettable soundtrack. The top speed of this marvel reaches 214mph, and it accelerates from 0 to 60mph in just 2.5 seconds. Notably lightweight, the vehicle features a carbon-fiber reinforced plastic monocoque tub, sub-frame, doors, and body panels, with polyurethane bumpers. Its suspension comprises forged aluminum wishbones with standard PASM adaptive dampers. The 4-wheel steering feature further enhances cornering, handling, and stability, adjusting according to the vehicle's speed.

This particular example, originally delivered to Austria, comes in a White exterior with a contrasting Onyx Black leather interior accented with Acid Green piping. It is richly optioned, featuring front axle vehicle lift, a Burmester audio system, Acid Green brake calipers, exposed carbon fiber interior and exterior elements, and a host of other features.
