Video: Porsche 918 Spyder On The Road

Green supercar steps ever-closer to reality


"There is no contradiction anymore between performance and this whole environmental discussion."

This is what Porsche AG design chief, Michael Mauer, says about the new 918 Spyder, which has recently been confirmed for production. It's hard to argue against his point really, especially when you have a car that's capable of 74mpg, 198mph and a 'ring time that beats the Carrera GT.

And to prove that the new green supercar is close to becoming a reality, Porsche decided to do this video of the car on the road in California, ahead of its appearance at last weekends Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. We particularly like the music. Very relaxing.
