really starting to dig this car. I am just not a hybrid fan, but this might be a game changer.

The fact you can buy historic livery car is awesome, I saw it in the brochure!!

Looking forward to the release of this car!

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

All 4,83$ of it.

I think I just changed my mind about the car, going from full electric to crossplane engine screaming was incredible.

This car is so convincing. I dont understand all the hate for it.

The switch from E-Drive to Sport Hybrid was mind-blowing and I wasn't even sitting inside the car. I hear that the exhaust hasn't been tuned yet but I already like the exhaust the way it is.

haha exactly. this technology is amazing. beautiful car too. i always loved how it looked but i wasnt sure how i would like the hybrid aspect. the overall package could not have been better in my opinion.

Sub'd to watch later.

I don't understand why people are so up in arms over a hybrid sports car. After all Porsche is working on it, so it's not like it's Toyota trying to make a Prius Sport lol. I don't car if the car runs on baby seal tears (I have no special attachment to fossil fuels) as long as Porsche delivers that's all that matters. I can't wait for the day this tech. becomes mainstream and is available in "affordable cars"

I like the hybrid aspect a little more after this video. My initial thoughts are the same though, and apparently shared by Chris Harris, in that I can't stop thinking how incredible it would be with all the hybrid tech removed.
