Monterey California, August 2010: The Porsche 918 Spyder Hybrid made its driving debut on
a closed road in Monterey California, just days prior to its appearance at the 2010 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.

After being shipped over from Germany by plane, engineers handed the keys of the new 918 Spyder Hybrid to Porsche AG Design Chief Michael Mauer. The car drove under its own power which comes from the mid mounted 3.4 liter V8 out of the RS Spyder as well as an all electric mode which powers just the front
wheels...

It'd be awesome if this concept were to be quietly pushed onto a stage in front of environmental activists and was started and revved. Most of them would probably hate the beautiful noise, but I'd say, "Let this be the new Turbo!"

*I'm all for clean environments and everything, btw.

I'm for it because I know it is our responsibilities as humans to do the right thing concerning our planet, but I hate the marketing strategy of it. Meaning I hate the word "green." What the crap is that? Its a scam and a marketing ploy to get you to buy things that are "green." Then they want to make a big deal off of something that they already are suppose to be doing. Like its your responsibility to do that and now you are charging us more because of the word "green" is on your products?
