Hybrid Porsche 911 GT3 R to make world debut in Geneva

Porsche has developed an innovative hybrid drive to be unveiled at Geneva Show prior to racing at the Nurburgring in May. This development of 911 GT3 racer serves as a spearhead for technology and "racing laboratory" and serves as a showcase for Porsche Intelligent Performance philosophy.

A Porsche 911 GT3 R with innovative hybrid drive will be unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March, taking the evolution of the iconic sports coupe to new levels in motor sport and opening a new chapter in an illustrious racing record that has witnessed more than 20,000 victories in 45 years.

After its debut in Switzerland, the 911 GT3 R Hybrid will be tested in long-distance races around the Nurburgring, Germany. The highlight of this test program will be the 24 Hours race around the 14-mile Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit on 15/16 May.

However, the focus is not on the 911 GT3 R Hybrid winning the race but rather serving as a spearhead for the technology and a 'racing laboratory' that will provide invaluable knowledge and insight on the subsequent use of hybrid technology in road-going Porsche sports cars.The hybrid technology featured in the 911 GT3 R Hybrid has been developed especially for racing, and is set apart from conventional hybrid systems in its configuration and choice of components.

Uniquely, an electrical front axle drive with two electric motors each developing 60 kW supplements the familiar 480 hp  4.0-litre flat-six 'boxer' petrol engine at the rear of the 911 GT3 R Hybrid.

Consequently, the 911 GT3 R Hybrid has four driven wheels, offering even greater traction and agility. Depending on racing conditions, hybrid drive is used in this case not only for extra power, but also to save fuel.This again increases the efficiency and, accordingly, the performance of the 911 GT3 R Hybrid, by reducing the weight of the fuel tank or making pit stops less frequently.
