2015 Porsche 918 Spyder

Editorial directory profile. This is a reference entry for a production model, not an advert, offer for sale, seller representation or VIN-specific vehicle claim.

The 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder is a limited-production plug-in-hybrid hypercar: Porsche built 918 examples around a carbon-fibre two-seat Spyder platform, pairing a 4.6-litre naturally aspirated V8 with two electric motors. Its technical ambition, extreme performance, Nürburgring pedigree and 918-unit run make Hypercar the most defensible primary classification.
