A low-mileage Porsche 918 Spyder will cost you over $2-million in 2022, but how does it stack up against a Porsche 911 Turbo S? CarWow pits the two against each other in their latest drag racing showdown. The 3,616-pound, mid-engine hypercar is powered by a 4.6L V8 mill combined with two electric motors to generate a combined 875 hp and 944 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission.
The Porsche 911 Turbo S packs a twin-turbocharged 3.8L flat-six engine generating 641 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque, paired to an 8-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, all in a 3,691-pound package. Let’s just say that despite the massive $1.8-million price gap between the two, the race is a lot closer than you might think.
