We have talked a lot about them in recent weeks and also monopolized the limelight for years on merit. The new McLaren P1, laferrari, Porsche 918 Spyder, Honda NSX and SRT Viper sports are our five dream present and near future. And yours, what are they? Do you agree with our opinion?

McLaren P1 hybrid 916 hp

Since the first reports of P1, some of the heads of McLaren Automotive the bar very high … almost got in heaven. "with the new P1, McLaren He wants to develop the best sports history". Well, little by little we know more about this sport alien.

The spectacular design that borders the aesthetics of spaceships of the films is only the first appeal McLaren P1, because what really matters is not what meets the eye. In its technical genes, we have a hybrid system in which several elements converge. First a rear engined V8 twin 3.8 updated and with a maximum power of 737 hp at 7,500 rpm, while the maximum torque falls in 73.41 mkg from 4,000 rpm. Coupled to motor gasoline, P1 It incorporates a electric motor from 179 hp that, at certain times used all its power to support the gasoline engine through the system IPAS (Instant Power Assist System). At this time, the McLaren P1 You can boast a maximum power of 916 CV, while maximum torque of hybrid system It stands at about Stratospheric 91.77 mkg.

With this advanced hybrid technology, he McLaren P1 It can boast of a great relationship between performance and fuel consumption, with a speed limited electronically to 350 km / h, acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in less than three seconds and an incredible average level of CO2 emissions below 200 g / km.

Laferrari, faster than the Enzo

Sports and impressive alternative to hybrid technology McLaren P1 He comes from the hand of Ferrari. Debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, the new laferrari marks a before and after in the success story of the signing of Prancing Horse. On its front, silhouette and doors opening élitro type or insectoid, some categorized it as the successor to the legendary Enzo. And it seems that these opinions are more than adequate, as the first test circuit, since the new LaFerrari He has successfully completed a return to Fioran circuitor 1 minute and 20 seconds, with about 5 seconds faster than Enzo and almost 3 seconds faster than the F12 Berlinetta latest.

In the technical guts of Ferrari LaFerrai, we find an engine Petrol 6.3 V12 800 hp at 9,250 rpm, accompanied by a electric motor 120 kW (about 163 hp). At certain times, the total power of the LaFerrari hybrid system reaches the exorbitant figure 963 CV. In this hybrid system there is also an electric generator / motor, which is responsible for providing energy to other auxiliary elements that need electricity. More about laferrari

Porsche 918 Spyder, the precursor

Trio of aces Ferrari, McLaren and Porsche, he 918 Spyder Signature Stuttgart It has the honor to take the lead in the development of hybrid technology applied to supercars, announcing both the project and the final production car a few months before the LaFerrari and the P1.

Below its aerodynamic body, the Porsche 918 Spyder hides a hybrid drive mode in series / parallel formed by two electric motors placed in the front and on the rear axle, in addition to a central V8 gasoline engine with a displacement 4.6 liters and more than 570 hp. The two electric motors together total power 170 kW (about 218 hp). The combined output of the hybrid system declared exceeds 770 CV, while the torque at certain times also exceed 750 Nm. The whole arsenal of sheer force is transferred to the road through the known automatic dual clutch PDK seven marches.

Sporting credentials are well above expected initially by artisans and engineers of the Stuttgart firm. With the two-time World Rally Championship, Walter Röhrl giving the best of himself in the development of 918 Spyder, This new hybrid beast managed to complete a lap in the Nurburgring an incredible record 7 minutes 14 seconds, He is beating even the time he achieved in his time one of the myths Porsche, he Carrera GT, which toured more than 20 kilometers of this route in 7:32. More on the Porsche 918 Spyder.

Honda NSX, Ferrari returns Japanese

Take to calendar year: 2015. According to official information of Honda, this will be the year of the commercial debut of the new Honda NSX XXI century.

One of the main innovations of Honda NSX is the incorporation of new hybrid sports AWD system that is the acronym SH-AWD (Of English words Super Handling All Wheel Drive). In this technology take center stage one V6 new gasoline engine with variable valve timing VTEC, direct injection, centrally mounted and acts on the rear wheels. On the other hand, we find two electric motors connected to the front wheels. They are responsible for managing the rotation speed of each wheel in a curve, increasing or decreasing depending on the circumstances of each wheel grip. To transfer all the power and torque, the Honda Group has developed a new automatic double clutch. Beside this, it is associated with another small electric motor. In fact, this system SH-AWD It is being tested by Honda in various prototypes that are based an Accord with American specifications. In these prototypes, the automatic double clutch is seven speeds and the internal combustion engine is a V6, in this case with a displacement of 3.5 liters.

Regarding benefits, for now officially they have not advanced data, but it is expected that the final specifications are outstanding. Some Internet rumor mill dares to announce a combined capacity of all Hybrid system 406 CV, with acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in less than five seconds. However, it is more than likely that these preliminary data will improve significantly in the coming months, reaching benefits to the height of the LaFerrari, P1 and 918 Spyder.

2013 SRT Viper, the ‘cowboy’ American

Across the pond to land in the land of cowboys and cowboys. The new SRT Viper 2013 It is perhaps the most impressive American sports production time, not forgetting, of course, other legendary names like the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 or Chevrolet Camaro.

Evolution SRT Viper 2013 –and it is not associated as such appellation signature is Dodge- radical in many sections. Not just jumps out its renewed and attractive design, but also some aspects of its construction and mechanical innards. The hood, roof and trunk lid are made of carbon fiber, while the doors are aluminum. Mechanically, the SRT Viper 2013 continues with the classic ‘recipe’ of the previous model, using a Stratospheric V10 atmospheric large displacement. Specifically, this sports incorporates a propellant gasolina 8.4 V10 649 hp and 82.86 Nm of torque, this really amazing thing to be a mechanical heart last thing he does not resort to overfeed.
