Porsche 918 Spyder

The Porsche 918 Spyder reaches 60 mph in 2.43 s (100 km/h in 2.51 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 9.82 s, tripping the lights at 143.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.52 s and the eighth mile in 6.40 s, reaching 100 mph in 4.91 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the 918 Spyder

The 2013 Porsche 918 Spyder is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,640 kg with 874 bhp, which works out at 533 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.52 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 62nd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest one per cent of the set, and the 7th quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 143.3 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Porsche 918 Spyder 0-60 time?
The Porsche 918 Spyder reaches 60 mph in 2.43 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 62nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Porsche 918 Spyder quarter mile time?
9.82 s at 143.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 6.40 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.52 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Porsche 918 Spyder have?
874 bhp and 1,640 kg, which is 533 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 351 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Porsche 918 Spyder?
Closest here on pace: Mclaren 765LT Spider (2.51 s), Mclaren 750S (2.51 s), Lamborghini Temerario (2.36 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 918 Spyder in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Porsche 918 Spyder is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
