Porsche has now unveiled their second version of the 911 GT3 R Hybrid race car. Porsche has succeed to reduced the weight of this electric racer for about 20 percent. Most of the reducing is done by removing its hybrid drivetrain. There are two electric motors in the portal axle to bring 200 horsepower in a few seconds at a time. That power will be added by 470 hp from the flat six cylinder combustion engine in the back. Beside that, with the data collected from the previous generation when it is on track, the engineers is now able to reconfigure the electric components. They are also removing the huge air intakes at the rear fenders of the first version. Now, its new skin will be significantly more aerodynamic as well as increasing the fuel economy. This car will still use the electric flywheel accumulator, but now the unit and the rest of the hybrid stuff is now stored in the carbon fiber safety cell inside the passenger side. Porsche plans to use this 911 GT3 R Hybrid 2.0 at some race events this year, like they did with the previous car. Следующие материалы:
