78mpg estimated city..My assumption is that would be light throttle just tooling around town.

It will probably cost north of $400,000, this would essentially be the next generation Carrera GT, (which had an MSRP of $440,000).

Looks VERY tasty. However I wouldn't like to burn my wife's legs on the exhaust pipes which stick out the side.

They probably used some weird math to calculate it, like that one car advertising 900+mpg.

it'll do 78mpg as long as you keep the speed at 2mph. Any faster and you mess up the mpgs

You've owned 6 Porsches, and you still don't know how to spell Porsche.

That's pretty fucking sad.

You cannot say that an electric car gets 78mpg. That is just for hype and sales.

Lets say the car runs full electric under 50kph. The batteries last for say 100km. If you drive less then 100km both ways to work, you are getting *mpg because you are never going to use fuel. If you drive 120kph, to work and back, you are driving 20km on petrol.

k0nr4d · 03-02-2010, 02:02 AM

anyone else notice the wheels? they are transparent

kmanrox · 03-02-2010, 03:59 AM

That's not how most hybrid cars work..

I'm not sure what tech this car is supposed to use, but most hybrid cars have an electric motor that provides all of the power to the wheels. Then there is a completely separate gasoline engine powering a generator. The engine provides just enough power for the car at cruising speeds. During times of acceleration, the batteries provide the extra power necessary. When the car is decelerating or standing still, the batteries recharge.

I'm willing to bet on top of an extremely efficient electric motor, the actual gasoline V8 uses some sort of active cylinder control, (variable displacement technology). So just cruising around town in light throttle situations it would only would use 4 of the 8 cylinders and the smallest electric motor. Then when you go WOT you use the full potential of the motor as well as the other 2 larger more powerful electric motors.

As for the 78mpg claim, well yes that is probably what the maximum you can get if the car is driven a particular way. However, if you've followed Porsche history you would know they're not known for making ridiculous claims; in the past they have called out other manufactures on their claims. In my opinion if driven a certain way this hybrid will get close to what they're claiming as far as fuel economy.

That technology has been around for awhile, they are actually airless tires which are much more efficient than regular tube tires.

Here are pictures of the actual concept.

Roby · 03-02-2010, 06:53 AM

i would like to have this car !

03-02-2010, 07:17 AM

i guess you did not understand the concept of hybrid yet

in the city the car drives electric only - unless the battery gets too low and the engine jumps in to recharge. hence the low fuel consumption in city traffic. outside the city it will be probably more like 30 mpg when you're lucky

03-02-2010, 07:46 AM

I just found my new ride.

Hazlewood · 03-02-2010, 07:51 AM

just read about it in another place - it's not just a concept, it will be build.
