Porsche, which continues to innovate in the field of vehicles, has recently introduced the newcomer in his stable, the Porsche 911 GT3 hybrid. This model will be unveiled at the Salon de l’Automobile in Geneva in March. A source disclosed that Porsche Porsche 911 GT3 hybrid was developed specifically for use in races.
The 911 GT3 stands out hybrid models of hybrid car by its conventional configuration, its parts and also because it uses a system of a new kind. It has two electric motors of 60 kW each coupled to an engine of four liters of type Carioca “a power of 480 horsepower to propel the front axle. Most impressive in this model is that the Porsche 911 GT3 hybrid battery does not like the other models are normally like this. Instead we find a flywheel or flywheel as he is known in the jargon car, installed near the driver and whose function is to store kinetic energy and redistribute it to two electric motors.
The flywheel itself is regarded as an electric motor, as it includes a rotor can rotate at a speed of 40,000 rpm and can store mechanical energy of rotation. The flywheel stores energy when the driver applies the brakes. In doing so, the two electric motors are then transformed into two generators, which store the energy supplied by the flywheel. This energy is used in circumstances that require more power as in the output of a turn or trying to overtake another car. The two electric motors have the benefit of 120 kW of additional power over a period of 6 to 8 seconds.
The 911 GT3 R Hybrid is a perfect example of the philosophy of “c” a principle is found on all models of vehicles from the manufacturer and which aims to promote use more power with less fuel, but also more efficiently while reducing C02 emissions.
