Porsche 918 Spyder previewed in Bahrain

Porsche 918 Spyder

Remember the Porsche 918 Spyder? With the advent and subsequent hype of the McLaren P1 and LaFerrari it’d be easy to forget Porsche wants in on this hybrid hypercar fad too.

So it’s just as well the lads from Stuttgart rocked up to Bahrain with four 918s—two test mules and two pre-production models—to offer exclusive test drives to rich oily types. We’re certain they will have enjoyed their time at the wheel of the 795hp hybrid beast and wish it was us having a laugh with Porsche instead.

The 918 Spyder is due to go on sale in mid-September, so expect a heap of goodies and press guff in time for the Frankfurt Motor Show.
