      F1 is not a thing Americans would watch. It's considered too sophisticated and therefore not syndicated in the United States, at least not on the scale of "Nascar".

      Not connected to exhaust or oil system. The only 2 real failure points of a turbo. Assuming Egr doesn’t feed pre turbo.

      Why? Do you think we haven't come to understand electric motors - yet? The Pearl Street Power Station was built in New York City by Thomas Edison in 1882. We've been doing electric motors for a while now.

      @@kencreten7308 LOL! I probably generated more electricity than you have used in your whole life, unless you're really old!🤣🤣That's a pretty poor comparison to a electric driven turbo in a Porsche.
      I do know turbo's quite well. No matter if it is exhaust driven or electric driven, the RPM's are going to be quite considerable. That is just the nature of the beast. I'm quite sure the veins on the impeller are a bit different than an exhaust driven turbo, but you still can't avoid basic engineering and high rpm's are still going to be a requisite.
      It is still a piece of equipment with very tight tolerances. That combined with the high RPMS and 100 percent constant use, definitely makes it a part that is high on the eventual failure list. Only time will tell the longevity of said part. At least there's not the high heat from the exhaust driven side that would cook the oil and Coke up the bearings.
      It would be interesting if they released the turbo map figures on this particular setup.

      @@rayjay8322 I'm sure you don't know jack compared to Porsche engineers, who developed this, and you know, who have a tendency of developing indestructible super high performance cars that just keep working no matter what you do to them. So yea, keep questioning, wannabe Scotty Kilmer. The only enemy to Porsche's reliability (as to any other European car) is an american owner, most of whom believe servicing your car regularly is just a scam by the dealership, and then don't do it, and then cry when something goes on. That's why the same cars in the US have about 20x more breakdowns compared to the same cars in the EU. And they're driven much harder in the EU on top of it. Says a lot.

      Did you even care about reading up on this hybrid and what it does, or do you usually prefer to jump to dumbass conclusions? Its much faster, has zero turbo lag, more efficient and not heavier than before. And the system will be more reliable and durable because this turbo inherently has less moving parts and is under less stress.

      You may not understand that this is not a typical hybrid; Porsche essentially took the hybrid tech from Formula 1 and put it in a street car.

      The performance coming from combining an electric with combustion engine is CRAZY good! And this comes from a manual, 3L NA V6 purist.
      I wholeheartedly recommend you go for a testdrive in one of these performance oriented hybrids. It's a life changing experience.
