Can it put the Porsche 918 Spyder to the sword? Will it be better than the LaFerrari? But, most importantly, can it be as an intoxicating experience as the McLaren F1? We’ll find out later this week when Autocar publishes the full verdict on video, but in the meantime, here’s the McLaren P1 on track in Bahrain with Steve Sutcliffe at the wheel.

2015 Porsche 918 Spyder: The Future of the Hypercar! Ignition Ep. 100

On this very special 100th episode of Ignition, Carlos Lago tests the Porsche 918 Spyder in Spain. Boasting an electric motor on the front axle and a parallel hybrid setup for the rear, this hypercar produces a combined 874 hp and 944 lb-ft of torque and aims to set a new precedent for performance and efficiency. To this end, it has dizzying amount of motorsports-derived technology — its carbon fiber passenger tub, engine, and chassis are derived from the concepts that created the RS Spyder ALMS racecar — but its European test cycle fuel economy results are comparable to the Toyota Yaris Hybrid’s. How well does this immensely complex hypercar work? This week, as Ignition celebrates it’s 100th episodes, we find out!

Ignition appears every Monday on the Motor Trend youtube channel. http://www.youtube.com/motortrend

Alfa Romeo 4C vs Porsche Cayman vs Toyota GT86 / Scion FT86 – sportscar shootout

The new Alfa Romeo 4C has the right kind of credentials for a sports coupé, but can it really rival the indomitable and equivalently priced Porsche Cayman? Or how about the much cheaper, and less exotic, Toyota GT86?

The brilliance of the Porsche Cayman and the delicacy of the Toyota GT86’s handling is well documented. It is many years since Alfa Romeo build a truly great driver’s car befitting of the iconic badge. Autocar’s Steve Sutcliffe puts all three of the rear-wheel drive coupés head-to-head on track, in order to find out which one’s the best to drive.

Celebrating 50 years of the Ford Mustang, Ford launched an all-new model. It finally adopts independent suspension and will be built in right-hand drive for the first time. Not to be outdone, Chevrolet launched the new Corvette Stingray Z06, the most sophisticated yet, and a potential Toyota Supra successor has been teased — the Toyota FT1.

Not to be outdone, the Porsche 911 Targa is served up with a heavy does of retro-ness, while the Kia GT4 Stinger is a GT86/BRZ rival that looks like the shot in the arm that Kia needs. Mark Tisshaw hosts the Detroit motor show…
