The 2014 Porsche 918
has been built with more unique and utterly unmistakable appearance as
compared to its predecessor and competitors. This good-looking vehicle
will look more powerful but not bulky and it looks muscular, elegant
and highly athletic. The automaker launched the very first super-luxury
CAR with the legendary LM002 in 1986. With the introduction of 918, the
company’s designers and engineers have apparently brought about a brand
new icon in automotive history.
Interior
If anybody is wondering why the company decided to manufacture a
fast car instead of the regular sedan, actually it all comes down to
money. 2014 realized that many of its customers around the world also
possess cars, and so certainly it wants to keep those buyers shopping
in-house.
Exterior
Towards the exterior (smaller than 2014 Jeep Wrangler) styling and
features, there are wide headlights illuminated by LED clusters and
accented with Y-shaped LED light tubes at the front. The fascia is
dominated by large intakes, and boasts a variable-height carbon-fiber
splitter that may rise up and out of the way for more clearance when in
off-road conditions. Moreover, this car will come with a huge 24 inches
wheels completed with the carbon fiber bolted to the spokes.
Engine
In terms of the engine and power-train, Porsche 918 will
equip an all four-wheel-drive system with a 600 hp twin-turbo
V8-powered engine. The expected fuel economy of this vehicle may stand
at 11 mpg in the city and 17 on the highway. The production car might
make use of hybrid power, which is being seen on halo cars elsewhere in
the group which include the brand new Porsche 918 Spyder.
The automaker believes introducing a high-performance CAR into its
range is a good idea, because it could go on to be its biggest selling
model. 2014 Porsche 918 could be by up to a factor of 2:1, selling over
3000 examples a year when Aventador and Gallardo combined sales totaled
2083. It’s easy to see how important this third model could be to 2014.
Price
The pricing of 2014 Porsche 918 will be around £180.000.
Unfortunately, there are no other further details and specifications
revealed by the company. But there is confirmed information that the
production of Porsche 918 has the deadline of 2017. Moreover,
the company states that only 3.000 units will be made available to sell
worldwide, mainly in the United States, United Kingdom, Middle East,
China and some of the other European markets.
