En enero de 2011, en el NAIAS 2011 de Detroit, fue presentado por Porsche el estudio de un coche de carreras basado en el Spyder, llamado 918 RSR. El motor V8 de 3.4 L (500 hp/370 kW), es un desarrollo del motor utilizado en el coche de carreras RS Spyder con homologación de prototipos de Lemans. Está complementado con tres motores eléctricos que entregan 218 caballos de potencia adicionales (163 kW). La transmisión es una caja de cambios de siete velocidades acoplada al sistema de embrague Porsche (PDK) de doble entrega de potencia al eje trasero. Dos motores eléctricos están conectados a las ruedas delanteras directamente a través de una proporción fija, mientras que un tercer motor eléctrico está conectado a la transmisión y proporciona energía adicional a las ruedas traseras. Esto le da al 918 Spyder un tiempo de aceleración de 0-100 km / h menor de 3,2 y una velocidad máxima de más de 320 kilómetros / h (200 mph). El sistema de almacenamiento de energía es una batería de litio-ion de refrigeración líquida, colocada detrás del habitáculo. Además de los enchufes de recarga de las baterías también se puede cargar por el frenado regenerativo y por el exceso de producción del motor cuando el coche está circulando. Las emisiones de CO 2 son de 70 g / km y el consumo de combustible es de 3 L/100 km (94 mpg imperial /78 mpg americano). El 918 Spyder ofrece 4 modos de conducción diferentes: E-Drive permite al coche correr con energía de la batería solamente, utilizando sólo el motor eléctrico trasero, dando una autonomía de 16 millas (26 km).

  • The Most Famous Porsche Seat Designs
    newsroom History Dec 25, 2018 The most famous Porsche seat designs Hollywood fashion stylist, Ilaria Urbanati, rates the best seat patterns from over 70 years of sports car history, together with Ivo van Hulten and Cornelia Rosenbohm from Style Porsche. For the fourth episode of the Top 5 series, Porsche welcomes a guest from the USA: Ilaria Urbanati. She is a fashion stylist from Hollywood, who dresses stars such as Ryan Reynolds, James Marsden and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Together with Ivo van Hulten, Head of the Interior Design Studio in Weissach, and Cornelia Rosenbohm, a Colour and Trim expert for the Design Studio, she presents the Top 5 fancy seat patterns. #5 Porsche 928 Page 1 of 5 The ranking begins with the Porsche 928 with red and white stripes and a special feature on its headrests: the logo by Ferry Porsche. The colour contrast between the fine white lines and the wider burgundy stripes makes this interior a real eye-catcher. The designers of our number five instantly hit the mark with Ilaria, an avowed 80s fan. #4 Porsche 911 (G series) Stripes continue to determine the ranking: in fourth place is a Porsche 911 with pinstripes in maroon and white. This G-Series is the last 3.2-litre 911 ever built, and left the Zuffenhausen factory in 1989. It marks the end of the almost 17-year history of the second 911 generation. The combination of Carrara White Metallic paint finish and pinstripe interior design is a fitting tribute to this finale. #3 Porsche 911 Turbo „Louise“ The “Louise” Turbo, named after Louise Piëch, is not only the first turbo engine in a Carrera body, but also ranked third by our experts.

But it’s actually fuelled by adventure. The new Taycan Cross Turismo. Soul, electrified. Electricity consumption (in kWh/ km) combined .; CO₂ emissions (in g/km) combined Porsche Engineering Magazine 2/2021 Editorial 3 dear reader, A pioneering spirit has shaped Porsche’s history from its very inception. This is just as true for engineering services by Porsche as it is for the sports car manufacturer Porsche. Since the founding of the Porsche engineering office 90 years ago, we have dedicated ourselves to technical challenges with passion and inventiveness. Our aim is always to develop the innovations of tomorrow. What Ferdinand Porsche began with pioneering work such as the Volkswagen, we are carrying forward today with the development of technologies for the intelligent and connected vehicle of the future. In the process, we pay close attention to specific market requirements for digital functions. Hence the theme of the current issue of our magazine: "Intelligent. Connected. Digital". Our report on the Big Data Loop shows the potential that artificial intelligence holds in store for new driving functions. Learning in the cloud will make it possible to optimize driving functions largely auto- matically even after a vehicle has been delivered, thus offering customers added value. What we were able to demonstrate in the proof of concept using the example of adaptive cruise control will be of interest for many other driving functions as well. The Big Data Loop is also a good example of the increasing importance of connectivity.

  • JACKY ICKX Porsche
    Foreword by JACKY ICKX Porsche Although the first Porsche sports car, the 356, did not appear until after the Second World War, the family involvement in the motor industry dates back to 1898. Ferdinand Porsche's contribution to the development of the Austrian and German industries was considerable, and included important design work on road and sports cars as well as commercial vehicles and highly specialised military engines. Founded in 1931, the Porsche independent design company was responsible for the development of the vastly successful Volkswagen car, and it is a tribute to the man's genius that the car is still in limited production today. The success of the Porsche cars in sports racing events since the war has been considerable, indeed it is probably true to say that their wins over this period have been unequalled. Although known mainly for their exotic sports cars, the Porsche company plays an important part in assisting other manufacturers worldwide, in the design and development of diverse products, both ergonomic and technical. This book traces the fascinating history of the Porsche contribution to the automobile industry, the company's own cars, and their involvement in the world of motor racing. It is a tribute to one of the world's major sports car manufacturers, whose product is a symbol of craftsmanship, precision and quality. • PORSCHE MICHAEL COTTON Designed by PHILIP CLUCAS msiad Produced by TED SMART and DAVID GIBBON Shell CRESCENT BOOKS NEW YORK FOREWORD I am, in all modesty, delighted to be associated with the tribute that this book n Professor Porsche, who in my family has always been looked upon as the Alber automobile engineering.
