It’s no secret that Porsche is studying the possibility of putting the 918 Spyder hybrid car to production. The German automaker already has one successful hybrid system in the 911 GT3 R Hybrid racer and with its recent successes, the hybrid system has basically proven itself. With that, Porsche has now announced its intention to take the 918 Spyder racing at the 24-hour race at the Nurburgring Nordschleife in 2011.
Porsche engineers are already working on the car and one of their priorities is to get its top speed up to the 320km/h mark. Porsche claims that the 918 Spyder is able to lap around the Nordschleife track in under 7 minutes and 30 seconds.
