Porsche
Among the 181 Porsche entries in the MotorJury library, the Porsche 919 Hybrid holds its own page in a catalogue built to record every car ever made, from series production to one-off concepts. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.
The record does not fix a firm introduction year for the Porsche 919 Hybrid, which is itself informative: cars without a clean launch date are usually prototypes, coachbuilt specials, or models whose history was written down long after the fact. The catalogue keeps them anyway, because the odd corners of the record are where the interesting machines hide.
On paper, the Porsche 919 Hybrid reads like this: the record lists its engine as gasoline engine; quoted output is 2014–2017 Spec: / 373 kW (ICE) + 300 kW (electric motors) / 671 kW (combined) / / Evo Spec: / 530 kW (ICE) + 324 kW (electric motors) / 854 kW (combined); kerb weight is recorded at 2014–2017 Spec: / 875 kg / (before driver or fuel) / / Evo Spec: / 849 kg / (before driver or fuel). Worked together, those figures give roughly 1000 horsepower per tonne — the single number that says more about how a car actually moves than any of its parts alone. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.
Within Porsche's own catalogue the Porsche 919 Hybrid sits alongside the Porsche P1 (1898), the Porsche Type 12 (1950), the Porsche 356, the Porsche 356 C. The record names the Porsche RS Spyder (LMP2) as its predecessor and the Porsche 963 (LMDh) as its successor, fixing its place in the model line's chronology. Design is credited to Alex Hitzinger (Technical Director).
The Porsche 919 Hybrid also has a competition record: 17 recorded wins from 34 starts and 3 (2015 FIA WEC, 2016 FIA WEC, 2017 FIA WEC) championships. A race history changes how a car should be valued — competition machines appreciate on provenance, not depreciation curves.
This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.
A specification sheet is only half a car's story. The other half — what breaks, what it costs to keep, which years to avoid — lives in MotorJury's ownership database, computed nightly from federal complaint and recall records and EPA economy data. Where the Porsche 919 Hybrid was sold in the United States, its model years carry full ownership verdicts there.
Specifications come from the Wikipedia infobox for this model (CC BY-SA) and the open Wikidata record, and are shown only where a source actually carries them — nothing here is estimated. Figures are manufacturer specifications, not measured results.
