Porsche 919 Hybrid stirs up the city of London

You read it correctly, it's not a typo. It's really the Le Mans car driving through London! While the entire automotive world has its eyes set on the Paris motorshow Mark Webber drove through London in a very special car. A car that grabs everyones attention, wether you're a car enthusiast or not. This is not in any way a car you see on the road every day. The Le Mans 24- winning Porsche 919 Hybrid stirred up the city of London.

Normally the Porsche racing driver already drives a Porsche hybrid, a 918 Spyder to be exact. This time he could get behind the wheel of a 919 Hybrid with a new Porsche Panamera E-Hybrid on his tail. Porsche of course wanted to show that the technology developed in racing is being used on road cars, like the Panamera. There was no speeding. The 919 mainly stayed in first gear. The electric engine wasn't even used due too cooling issues at low speed.
