Some stories are told in just 7 minutes and 22 seconds. For this story, that is only the beginning. It starts with a hybrid – but had to be distinctively Porsche. And with intelligent technology.

Our challenge is to move forward with confidence and take a new direction. The 918 Spyder represents an entirely new look at the supercar, and heralds the future of the sports car.
