In the 2014 Le Mans LMP1 class [color="#000000"]all of the teams in the top classification are required to compete with hybrid racing vehicles. Teams were still able to choose fuel type, displacement, number of cylinders, and whether or not to use forced induction. After considering their overall goal states as "[/color]the well-planned utilization of the vehicle’s full energy potential" [color="#000000"][size=4]Porsche engineers [/size][/color]developed a 2.0 Liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine to accompany they electric motor. The electric motor is supported by two energy recovery systems and a high-performance battery.





[color="#000000"]As enthusiasts of their last (possibly not for long) four-cylinder production car its worth a look for anyone interested Porsche has more information on their website. [/color]
