Porsche officials may have not yet given the green light for the production of the 918 Spyder, but we already have a projected price for the hybrid supercar that was unveiled in concept form at the Geneva Auto Show in March - or at least, that's what a report from Bloomberg supports.

the new cars,new cars,2012 cars,rav 4Citing two people with "direct knowledge of the plan", Bloomberg reported that if Porsche goes ahead and builds the 918 Spyder, it may carry a price tag of around €500,000 (equal to about US$630,000 at today's exchange rates).

That's 10 percent higher than Porsche's previous flagship supercar, the €453,000 Carrera GT built between 2003 and 2006, and roughly one-and-a-half times the price of Ferrari's "fastest ever road-going model", the new 599 GTO that costs -according to Bloomberg- €320,000 (US$405,000 at the current exchange rates).

The news agency says the number of people that have put in non-binding expressions of interest for the Porsche 918 Spyder has risen to at least 2,000 individuals.

Porsche development chief Wolfgang Duerheimer has previously stated that the company needs a minimum of 1,000 sales to approve limited production of the supercar. In this case, Porsche is said to make at least €500 million in revenue.

As a reminder, the two-seater 918 Spyder concept model makes use of a 500-horsepower 3.4 liter V8 gasoline engine positioned midship in front of the rear axle, and electric motors located on the front and rear axle with overall mechanical output of 218-horsepower. The company claims that the hybrid supercar should return 78 mpg (3 liters / 100km), hit 100km/h (62mph) in 3.2 seconds, and speed around the 'Ring faster than its predecessor, the Carrera GT.
