As one of the world’s top motoring journalists, and an avid Porsche enthusiasts, Chris Harris has been chosen to tag along the engineers as they take a Porsche 918 prototype out for a test drive. He then meets with the project leader for the car and discusses some of the details of this hybrid super machine, with an emphasize on weight and the powertrain.

Now, some of you might find this video boring, because Chris won’t get to drive the car and there is not slidey smokey stuff in it. It is just 15 minutes of technical chat. From a petrolhead’s point of view, it is a delicious conversation. But regular guys might nod off half way through.
