Porsche showed us another model, this one not made out of Legos (link to 50% Lego), which looks better than any car here on the Miami Motor Show 2015. It is the 2016 Porsche 918 Spyder model, which beats all the other cars and models here on the show.
The engine that is featured in this model can do stunning 887 horsepower at the peak of the RPMs. It is a 4.6 liter V8 engine, and there is a fun fact for it. It gives an impressive 133 horsepower per liter. Too much power for such small car, but there is one more engine on it. The petrol engine is connected to an electric motor via a clutch, adding 154 horsepower which drives the rear wheels. And that is not all.
We need to add up one more motor, the 127 horsepower electric motor which powers the front wheels. Too many engines for one car, but they only ensure that you will have comfortable and fast ride.
One nicer feature which gives special ring to the car, is the fact that the V8 engine has a 180 degree crankshaft, which sounds wicked on the exhaust pipe.
