19-inch wheels help to ensure excellent
traction – and display new st yling for an
ultra sporty appearance. Unleashed from
the centrally positioned twin tailpipe, the
powerful sound of the boxer engine also
leaves a strong impression.
The ‘S’ makes itself felt in the interior, too.
The leather detailing featured in the base
models has been extended. In addition to
the steering wheel rim, gear lever/selector
and inlay on the door handles, leather also
lines the door armrests and the lid of the
centre console storage compartment.
The 718 Boxster S and the
718 Cayman S.
Sporty performance can be enhanced.
With plenty of training. Or with the letter
‘S’. To be more precise: with 257 kW
(350 hp), produced in the 2.5-litre
turbocharged boxer engine. This unit –
like the one in the 911 Turbo – also
comes equipped with variable turbine
geometr y (V TG).
The new power unit is matched by the
brakes: the front brake discs on the new
718 Boxster and 718 Cayman have been
upsized to 330 mm, while 299 mm
equivalents are fitted at the rear. Four-
piston aluminium monobloc fixed calipers
in black are fit ted as standard.
Both 718 base models are equipped with
18-inch alloy wheels. The centrally
positioned tailpipe in brushed stainless
steel is an imposing statement.
The 718 Boxster and the 718 Cayman.
With the new 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman,
we are entering two pure-bred athletes
into the race: thanks to turbocharged
induction, their four-cylinder horizontally
opposed engine develops a remarkable
220 kW (300 hp) from a capacit y of just
2.0 litres. And that’s accompanied by a
considerable reduction in fuel consumption
by comparison with the previous models.
There’s more where that came from.

Design
The side profile emphasises the mid-
engine layout. The wheel arches are large,
designed for wheels up to 20 inches in
size. One thing is clear: the new 718 models
were not intended for the shelter of the
garage, but for the pleasure of driving.
That’s precisely why the contouring on the
doors purposefully directs headwind into
the large air intakes on either side of the
car. This provides the optimum supply of
air to the new turbocharged engines, a
basis for their powerful forward thrust.
Another sporty detail: new exterior
mirrors with v-shaped mirror base.
Precise, not fanciful. Self-assured, not
restrained. Low, wide and sleek. The
exterior design of the new 718 models
ushers in a new era for the Boxster and
Cayman with sporty, distinctive edges and
clearly defined formal contours.
The horizontal geometry of the air intakes
makes the front end appear even wider –
and lends it added bite. The wings?
Unmistakably Porsche. Higher than the
front lid, they have been styled to give
prominence to the new design of the
headlight units, which lay bare their inner
workings and incorporate the LED
daytime running lights.
At first glance: sporty.

At second glance: blown away.
Exterior design.

Drive
At low and medium vehicle speeds,
PTV significantly increases agility and
steering precision. At high speeds and
under acceleration out of corners, the
mechanically controlled rear differential
lock also acts to provide greater driving
stability and traction.
For the driver, this means strong
resistance to destabilising side forces,
outstanding traction and great agility at
every speed – with precise turn-in and
well-balanced load transfer characteristics.
What else? Tremendous fun in the corners.
Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV).
PT V is an optional system for enhancing
driving dynamics and stability. Operating
in conjunction with a mechanical rear
differential lock, it works by varying the
amount of torque transmitted to the rear
wheels.
When the car is driven assertively into a
corner, moderate brake pressure is applied
to the inside rear wheel. Consequently, 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
from the turn-in point.

On all 718 models, the wheels are light
alloys – a sports car hallmark. An extra
half an inch has been added to the width
of the rear wheels. This provides greater
stability and overall enhanced cornering
performance.Wheels.

Porsche Entry & Drive.
With the optional Porsche Entry & Drive,
you can leave your car key in your pocket.
As soon as you grab the door handle, or
your hand nears the Porsche Crest on the
front luggage compartment lid or the logos
on the rear, the system automatically
checks the encrypted access code on the
key. Once the key is validated, the door or
the luggage compartment lid unlocks. The
engine can then be started and switched
off using the electronic ignition switch.
Climate control.
An optional alternative to the air
conditioning
system, two-zone automatic
climate control has separate temperature
controls for the driver and front passenger
and offers a choice of three climate
setting profiles.
Light design package.
The optional light design package is both
practical and aesthetically appealing. It
comprises dimmable LEDs in various
parts of the interior.
GT sports steering wheel.
The new, optional GT sports steering
wheel has a smaller diameter. The spokes
are finished in black, while the spoke
trims are in Galvano Silver and are screw-
fastened. For a motorsport-derived look?
Definitely. Above all, though, to emulate a
motorsport driving feel.
Heating and multifunction controls are
optionally available for all steering wheels.
These give you fingertip access to the
4.6-inch colour display and therefore the
on-board computer as well as many audio,
telephone and navigation functions.
Sports steering wheel.
The sports steering wheel with three-
spoke design is lightweight and functional.
The small centre pad and the chrome ring
encircling the Porsche Crest – both
derived from the steering wheel of the
918 Spyder – reinforce its sport y
character.
In conjunction with PDK, the sports
steering wheel features two alloyed
gearshift paddles offering particularly
short shift throws.
