    New Luggage Set for Porsche 918 Spyder

    The new Porsche 918 Spyder luggage set presented by Porsche Tequipment is the first suitcase and bag series specially designed for trips away in this high-performance Sports Car. Designed by the Porsche Design Studio and developed by Porsche in Weissach, the luggage collection is an ideal match for the interior of the super sports car. The material concept of these luxurious accessories is based on those used in the passenger compartment of the 918 Spyder*, and the set is also designed to make optimum use of the space available in the vehicle. The series is available in three versions: as a five-piece luggage set, a three-piece travel set or a two-piece stowage set. The entire set comprises two storage boxes, two garment covers and a trolley. 

    The trolley was specially designed to fit the luggage compartment of the 918 Spyder and has a capacity of 30 litres. Its unusual form means that it leaves more than enough space in the luggage compartment to stow the removable roof halves of the 918 Spyder as well. The trolley can be expanded to hold an additional 10 litres if necessary. 

    A carbon case for the centre console is also included in the collection. The box opens on the passenger's side and fits into the elevated centre console, providing stowage space of around 4 litres. 

    An additional small storage box utilises the space in the glove box for secure stowage. The fact that it is opened and closed using the flap of the glove compartment means that it is ideally integrated into the vehicle.
    The luggage set is rounded off by two garment covers which can be securely attached to the carbon-fibre monocoque behind the seats thanks to a specially designed hanging system. The magnetic clasps on the inside of the garment protectors make it easier to fold them together. The protective covers are also shaped to fit the available space, unlike conventional garment covers. 

    The 918 Spyder luggage series is "Handmade in Germany“. The pieces of luggage are made from a unique high-quality combination of exposed carbon and authentic natural leather. The insides of the boxes, the garment covers and the suitcase are lined with Alcantara. The set thus references the popular motor sports materials which are also used in the interior of the 918 Spyder. The luggage set is available in the same versions as the vehicle interior: Garnet Red-Silver, Onyx Black-Acid Green, Onyx Black-Silver, Mocca Brown-Silver and Mocca Brown-Orange.

    Looks plenty big enough to hold one's wife's/girlfriend's evening wear, shoes and makeup.

    It looks like that funny looking trolley is not even customized to fit - plenty of space above. 

    Further on - they should rather bring a roof box or a trailer hook to fit some extra cloth! angry


    Re: New Luggage Set for Porsche 918 Spyder

    Haha, Porsche finally did a press release on the luggage set. I posted my set in the 918 thread back in early June.

    @Lars997, the space above the trolley is reserved for the 2 roof halves, but the halves only fit there if the trolley is not expanded.

    Well, it beats with what they did with the CGT. Literally if you were traveling in the CGT you need a second car to bring the luggage.

    A friend of mine usually sends his luggage in advance with a courier and the same way back. This seems to work quite well for Italy, Austria and France.

    They still have room to fit the folding top into the compartment!  This is a requirement.Smiley

    Does preclude too many shoe choices for the ladies AND a great way to make her underwear a bit too bulky to take along

    That's just too funny!!!  I would just dump those cloth in the garbage rather trying to fit into my trunk and damage my car....  Cloth VS Damage 918....  I must say it would be a no brainer for me....  hahaha


    Re: New Luggage Set for Porsche 918 Spyder

    These are wives/girlfriends. They either have no idea how much the car costs or don't care. Their shopping is more important.

    The husband also probably won't care, judging the Kuwait plate, he probably makes about 2 918 worth of money every hr.

    Re: New Luggage Set for Porsche 918 Spyder

    What makes you think they were shopping? They were in front of Ritz and possibly stayed there. The bag (luggage) fitted when they arrived. Unless they stuff it with purchases which I highly doubt because the luggage just fit so they would know any purchases would not fit. Based on the ladies actions, they were confident the luggage would fit and it did.


    Re: New Luggage Set for Porsche 918 Spyder

    Somehow we should see it from a different angle.

    Isnt it cool that they use the car as a daily ride? Better using that cars than hiding them in a collection! 

    I guess if this would have been some sexy bi*ches we would judge different!
