Super sportscar equipped with a hybrid drive takes the
Nürburgring Nordschleife in 6.57 minutes
As the first vehicle to boast global road homologation, the
Porsche 918 Spyder* has conquered the 20.6-kilometre lap around the Nürburgring
Nordschleife in less than seven minutes. Achieving a time of exactly six
minutes and 57 seconds, the super sportscar equipped with a hybrid drive shaved
14 seconds off the previous record. Wolfgang Hatz, member of the Porsche AG
Board of Management in charge of Research and Development, had the following to
say: "We promised a great deal with the 918 Spyder, namely to redefine
driving pleasure, efficiency and performance. We have kept our word."
