3.8L V8 twin turbo 727hp and 720nm torque

Electric engine is 176hp and 260nm torque

Electric engine is mounted directly onto the engine and translates through 7speed dual clutch transmission. Giving total output of 903hp. And980Nm of torque

The electric engine is also there for instant throttle response and to compensate for any part of the power band that lacks In result of turbo lag and such.

Also car can run completely without engine on on e mode

Yep.

I can't wait to see the hybrid electric supercar wars.

Apparently McLaren said that the 918 was way too heavy. :drool:

i dont think that the 918 will be able to compete with the p1 and the f150. porsche made it way to environmental friendly in order to compete with those two

They are only going to make 350 or so, the specs and test are pretty insane.
