Interior.
The interior of the new Boxster models
delivers exactly what the exterior
promises. Light, uncluttered and defined;
everything is conceived with one goal in
mind: the perfect drive.
The power, the contouring, the driver’s
vision, indeed the entire concept, are all
drawn in the direction of travel. The intel -
ligent operating concept and the logical
arrangement of the controls keep the
driver’s concentration purely on the road.
The elevated centre console cocoons the
driver perfectly and reduces the distance
from the steering wheel to the gear lever
for fast and ergonomic gearshifts. It ’s just
one of many principles that we’ve trans -
ferred from the racetrack to the road.
The door st yling is similarly dynamic. The
door pulls mirror the lines of the centre
console and blend seamlessly into the
distinctive design. The door storage com -
partments are sweeping and practical.

As you would expect from a sports car,
the driver sits low down. Sports seats
are fit ted as standard. The athletic pro -
portions of the new Boxster models made
it possible to introduce a new interior
architecture. The result is a feeling of
space and light without compromising
the authentic roadster experience.
Are you ready to assert your independ -
ence? The ignition lock, as ever, is on the
left. The three-spoke sports steering
wheel falls perfectly to hand. As is t ypical
of a Boxster, there are three circular dash -
board instruments. The instrument on the
right is now a 4.6-inch TFT screen that
shows information from the on-board
computer or audio information from the
CDR audio system, which is fit ted as
standard. An inconspicuous shroud shades
the instruments for optimum visibility.
The steering wheel rim, gear lever/selec -
tor and door pull inlays are finished in
tactile leather. Silver-coloured details add
to the refined tone; these include the

dashboard trim strip, the side and centre
air vent surrounds and the centre con -
sole. As an option, the sport y elegance
of the new Boxster models can be fur -
ther enhanced with a comprehensive
suite of interior trims and upholsteries.

Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV).
This optional system for increasing
dynamic performance and stability varies
the distribution of torque to the rear
wheels and includes a mechanically lock -
ing rear differential. When the car is driven assertively into

a corner, moderate brake pressure is
applied to the inside rear wheel. Conse -
quently, a greater amount of drive force
is distributed to the outside rear wheel,
inducing an additional rotational pulse (yaw movement) around the vehicle’s

vertical axis. This results in a direct and
sport y steering action as the car enters
the corner. At low and medium vehicle speeds, PT V
significantly increases agilit y and steering
precision. At high speeds and when

accelerating out of corners, the rear differ -
ential lock ensures greater driving stabilit y on a range of surface conditions, includ
-
ing the wet and snow.
The results are remarkable stabilit y, easier
handling and outstanding traction as
well as
greater agilit y at every speed with

characteristics. What else? As ever, lots
of
excitement at every t wist and turn.

Sports seats.
The standard Sports seats are comforta
-
ble and provide support even during
performance driving. The seat centres
are finished in Alcantara, a material
renowned in motorsport for its durability.
The seats are equipped as standard with
electric backrest adjustment and manual
height and fore/aft adjustment.
Sports seats Plus.
The optional Sports seats Plus are uphol -
stered in smooth -finish leather. The side
bolsters of the seat squab and backrest
are more prominently defined and have
a firmer, more sport y padding for even
bet ter lateral support. The backrest shell
up to the headrest has a Silver Grey Metallic paint finish. To help you find

the optimum posture, the seats feature
electric backrest adjustment and manual
height and fore/aft adjustment.
Fully electric Sports seats.
If you don’t want to sacrifice sportiness
for comfort, the optional fully electric
Sports seats offer fully electric adjust -
ment of seat height, backrest angle,
squab angle and squab depth. Also electri -
cally operated are the fore/aft adjustment,
four-way lumbar support and even the
steering column. The memory function
supports the exterior mirrors and all seat
positions on the driver’s side as well as
set tings for the steering wheel, lights,
wipers, two-zone automatic climate control

adapted to meet your needs in terms
of seat height, squab and backrest angle,
squab length, fore/aft adjustment
and four-way lumbar support. Steering
column adjustment is also electronically

as the positions of the steering wheel
and exterior mirrors. The memory func -
tion additionally supports settings for
the lights, wipers, two-zone automatic
climate control (optional), door locks,
PCM (optional) and instrument cluster.
Seat heating and ventilation.
Seat heating is available as an option for
all seats. Seats are heated in the squab,
backrest and side bolsters.
On request, we can equip all our seats
with seat ventilation (only in conjunction
with seat heating). A slipstream effect is produced by active ventilation of the

perforated seat centre and backrest and
by passive aeration at the side bolsters.
This evaporates perspiration moisture
and therefore makes for a dry and
pleasant seating environment, even in
hot weather.

Child seats.
A Boxster should be enjoyed by passen -
gers of all ages. ISOFIX child seat
preparation is available as an option and
includes a deactivation function for the
passenger airbag.

Air conditioning system.
An air conditioning system with integrated
active carbon filter is fit ted as standard.
The filter traps particles, pollen and
odours. The ventilation pat tern is wide and
the air conditioning is quiet and effective.
Two-zone automatic climate control.
Two-zone automatic climate control is
available as an option. It provides an
enhanced ventilation effect and has sepa -
rate temperature controls for the driver
and front passenger. The available air
conditioning modes are gentle, normal
and strong.
The automatic air-recirculation function
permanently monitors air quality, reduces humidit y and switches from fresh to

recirculated air when required. Another
function makes it possible to use the
residual heat of the engine to heat
the passenger compartment for up to
20 minutes with the ignition switched off.
Storage compartments.
Ingenious storage solutions create plent y
of space: the lockable glove compart -
ment, the compartment with a power
socket under the armrest in the rear
centre console and the uncovered com -
partment to the front of it. In conjunction
with the smoking package, the uncovered
compartment makes way for an ashtray
with a lid. Other storage features include
t wo compartments in each door, a net in
the passenger foot well, clothes hooks on
the seat backrests and t wo practical
cupholders above the glove compartment.
Light design package.
The optional light design package
comprises dimmable LEDs in the door
panels, overhead console and footwells.
LED lighting in the luggage compart -
ments is additionally included.
‘Welcome Home’ lighting.
The ‘Welcome Home’ lighting function
automatically switches on the LED day time
running lights for a user-defined period
whenever the vehicle is opened or closed
using the key remote.
Water-repellent side windows.
The surfaces of the side windows are
treated with a water-repellent coating
so that not only water but also dirt
runs away more easily, thereby providing
clearer visibilit y even in poor weather.
