Safety and environment
Fuel.
All Porsche models – including the
718 models – are designed to operate on
fuels with an ethanol content of up to
10 %, e.g. ‘E10’. Ethanol has a positive
impact on the CO
2 balance because it is
derived from plants that absorb CO
2 from
the atmosphere.
Fuel economy and recycling.
Intelligent lightweight construction is
integral to the Porsche identit y. This

identity is expressed in the form of a high
proportion of aluminium, magnesium,
plastics and super-high-strength sheet

steels. All materials have been strategically
selected, and the paints used are
predominantly environmentally friendly
water-based paints. Each light weight

material is easily recyclable and all plastic
components are labelled to facilitate
future separation for recycling. In all, the
new 718 Boxster and the new 718 Cayman
are around 95 % recoverable.
comparison with the previous models,

fuel consumption and emissions have
been reduced by approximately 14 %. And
that’s despite a hefty increase in power.
Of course, the efficient use of fuel by means
of efficiency-enhancing technologies such
as auto start/stop, thermal management,
electrical system recuperation, VarioCam
Plus and, in conjunction with Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK), coasting mode,

has also played a part. Cataly tic converters
with stereo Lambda control circuits provide
efficient emission control.
In an era of intensifying debate about
global climate change and CO
2 emissions,
every automotive manufacturer is asking
what it has to offer right now. Our answer?
Excellent performance together with
excellent efficiency.
Emission control.
The new 718 models demonstrate
that even high-performance sports cars
can achieve moderate fuel consumption
and exhaust emission values in their
respective category. This is where the
new turbocharged engines have made
a not inconsiderable contribution. By
A sporting essential:
fair play.
