body design
Bright. Vigorous. Low, wide, fast. The design of the 718 models, with its sporty sharp edges and clear forms, opens a new era in the history of the Boxster and Cayman.
The horizontal lines of the air intakes make the front end visually even wider, which gives the car extra energy. Wings? As is typical for Porsche, they sit above the bonnet and underline the design of the new headlights with LED daytime running lights with their shape.
The side line emphasizes the mid-engine concept of the car. Wheel arches are large - for wheels up to 20 inches in size. This makes it clear that the new 718 models are not designed to be kept in a garage. And for the thrilling enjoyment of movement. Not surprisingly, the special shape of the door panels encourages the oncoming air flow towards the large side air intakes. For optimal breathing of the new turbocharged engines and thus powerful traction.
Another sporty detail: the new exterior mirrors with V-shaped legs.
The fabric soft top of the 718 Boxster, when closed, retains the typical sports car dynamic silhouette. At the touch of a button, it opens automatically in 9 seconds, even when driving at speeds up to 50 km/h.
The back of the 718 models not only testifies to the pronounced sporty style, but also to the talent of our designers. She received a clear, concise form. And it looks completely different. Very beautiful flat rear lights with a three-dimensional design. Horizontal lights surround 4 dot LED brake lights. An accent strip located between the lamps visually expands the rear end.
Above it is a rear wing, which automatically extends at a speed of 120 km / h, reduces lift and thus contributes to a better grip of the wheels with the road.

Increasing power is not the most difficult task. But it's not easy to do it in Porsche style – while at the same time tangibly reducing fuel consumption. The result is a 25 kW (35 hp) increase in power and 100 Nm of torque with a 14% (NEDC) reduction in fuel consumption and emissions. But this is far from all our achievements.
The turbocharged 4-cylinder engines with the boxer design typical of Porsche show not only our environmental responsibility, but also our care for the adrenaline in the driver's blood. Acceleration is incredible - even at low speeds. Plus, the typical sports car ability to develop high revs. In the end: great specifications with precise dosing power. At the same time, every trip turns into a sporting event - no matter at what speed.
Of course, we have retained the characteristically low center of gravity, reduced to the middle of the vehicle, which has long contributed to the supreme agility of mid-engined Porsche models. The typically powerful Porsche sound is also present in the 718 models. It creates the right soundtrack for ever new records.
2.0 liter turbocharged boxer engine
Base models use a 2.0 liter turbocharged boxer engine with direct petrol injection (DFI), VarioCam Plus and integrated dry sump lubrication. It develops 220 kW (300 hp) at 6500 rpm. Maximum torque: 380 Nm. Thanks to turbocharging, this is already achieved at 1950 rpm and is maintained up to 4500 rpm. With Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), the 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds and reach top speed 275 km/h
2.5 liter turbocharged boxer engine
The engine capacity of the S models is 2.5 liters. As a result, it develops 257 kW (350 hp) at 6500 rpm. The maximum torque of 420 Nm is achieved in an impressive range from 1900 to 4500 rpm. In addition, he - like the 911 Turbo - uses . This system contributes to an even more uniform power delivery and thus greater driving pleasure. What can you say about acceleration? Only that it stops at 285 km/h. The S model with PDK and Launch Control reaches 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds.

The engine displacement of the 718 Boxster and Cayman models has been significantly reduced in order to reduce fuel consumption. Nevertheless, the power of the power units has grown significantly. Main reason: Model 718 turbochargers. Exhaust gas blowers are compact in design and optimally matched to engine displacement and power. The result speaks for itself: an incredibly wide “shelf” of torque is felt every time you press the accelerator pedal - because the engine is less than 30 cm from your back. And all this with significantly reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. After all, what is the meaning of power without intelligence?

More
Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV)
The optional system uses rear-wheel torque distribution and a mechanical rear differential lock to improve driving dynamics and stability.
With a dynamic driving style, the rear inner wheel is braked slightly when the steering wheel is turned. As a result, more torque is applied to the outer wheel, and the car receives additional momentum, “refueling” it into the turn. This allows for more confident and dynamic cornering.
At low and medium speeds, PTV improves agility and steering precision. At high speeds and when accelerating out of corners, a mechanical rear differential lock provides more stability and traction.
Result for the driver? High driving stability and outstanding traction. Exemplary agility at all speeds – with balanced responses to load changes and precise handling. What else? Maximum fun on corners.

Adaptive cruise control incl. Porsche Active Safe (PAS)
It is offered as an option in combination with the Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK). Depending on the distance to the person in front vehicle the system independently regulates the speed of your 718. To do this, sensors in the front of the vehicle monitor the situation in front of it. If you have set a certain speed in advance and approach a vehicle that is moving at a slower speed, the system reduces your speed by dropping the “gas” or gently braking the vehicle. All this continues until a certain - pre-configured - distance to the car in front is reached.
Your 718 will now maintain this distance to the vehicle in front. If the vehicle in front continues to brake, the adaptive cruise control will also continue to slow down until it comes to a complete stop. In addition, the system improves braking readiness when the set distance is reduced. If the system recognizes the risk of a collision, it gives an audible and visual warning. Additionally, the pressure in the brake actuator is increased. If the system recognizes that the driver is applying an emergency brake, it provides maximum support within its capabilities.
Lane Change Assistance
The optional Lane Change Assist uses radar sensors to monitor the area behind the vehicle, including the blind spot. From a speed of 15 km/h, the system informs the driver with a visual signal in the triangle side glass about vehicles approaching from behind or in the blind spot. The Lane Change Assist system thus improves comfort and safety, especially when driving on the motorway. However, the system does not interfere with the driving process, and in addition, it can be disabled.
Parking assistance and rear view camera
Thanks to four discreet sensors at the rear of the vehicle, the optional parking assistance system detects obstacles and warns the driver about them with an audible signal. The signaling frequency allows you to estimate the distance to the obstacle.
A 4-sensor park assist system is available as an option at the front of the vehicle. The system provides an acoustic and visual warning in the form of a top view of the vehicle.
Optional rear view camera facilitates precise parking and maneuvering in reverse. At the same time, the image from the camera and auxiliary dynamic guide lines on the PCM screen illustrate the trajectory of the car at the selected angle of rotation of the wheels.
Speed limit indicator*
An optional camera-based indicator provides information on the instrument cluster display and on the PCM screen about speed limits, no overtaking and the removal of limits.

Optional equipment
The compact roadster Porsche Boxster began to be produced in Stuttgart, Germany in 1996, and a year later its assembly began in Finland, at the Valmet company. The car had a mid-engine layout and rear-wheel drive, and its design was largely unified with the older model (series 996) for reasons of cost savings on development and production organization.
The Boxster received a six-cylinder boxer 2.5-liter engine with a capacity of 204 hp. With. In 2000, the engine volume was increased to 2.7 liters, and its output increased to 220 forces. At the same time, a version of the Porsche Boxster S appeared with a 3.2-liter boxer that developed 253 hp. With. Gearboxes - mechanical (five-speed for the base roadster or six-speed for the "eski") or five-speed "automatic".
In 2003, the model was upgraded. Engine power increased to 229 and 261 hp. With. for the Boxster and Boxster S versions, respectively. The exhaust system and steering were upgraded, and the rear window in the fabric folding roof was made of glass instead of plastic. There were also minor cosmetic changes in the design.
The Porsche Boxster was the brand's best-selling model before the introduction of the crossover in 2002. Every year, 20-25 thousand cars found their buyers, and a total of 165 thousand roadsters were made.
2nd generation (987), 2005–2012
In 2004, second-generation Boxsters with the factory index "987" began to roll off the assembly lines of factories in Germany and Finland. The design of the car compared to the previous model has not changed: it was still a mid-engine two-seater open car equipped with an electric soft top. In 2005, a coupe was created based on the roadster.
A 2.7-liter engine (240 hp) was installed on the basic version of the car, and the Porsche Boxster S received power unit volume of 3.2 liters and a capacity of 240 liters. with., both engines - six-cylinder, boxer. As an alternative to a manual transmission, buyers were offered a five-speed "automatic". In 2007, the Boxster S began to be equipped with a 3.4-liter engine (295 hp) instead of a 3.2-liter one, the 2.7 engine remained the same, but became 5 hp. With. more powerful.
In 2009, the Porsche Boxster was waiting for a significant upgrade. The power units received direct fuel injection: the basic version began to be equipped with a new 2.9-liter engine with a capacity of 255 liters. with., and the return of the 3.4-liter engine at the "eski" has grown to 310 forces. Also, instead of the “automatic”, the roadster received a preselective PDK robotic gearbox. External changes were purely cosmetic.
The special version of the Porsche Boxster Spyder, introduced in 2010, had a lightweight body (including due to the abandonment of air conditioning, an audio system and other options), lost an electric cloth roof, and also received a lowered suspension and sports seats. Its power unit with a volume of 3.4 liters was boosted to 320 forces.
Production of the second generation roadsters ended in 2012.
However, with impressive speed characteristics, as well as the car that pulled the company out of the collapse and allowed it to earn even more money, this is the 2012-2016 Porsche Boxster car.
This is a roadster that anyone can still buy for themselves, since the car is relatively inexpensive.
So, on January 12, 2012, the third generation of this model was shown. As a result, the new generation was sometimes called the Porsche 981, this number is the internal designation of the company, but the car is still on sale. The new generation of this model received a new, more beautiful design, but it still looked like a Porsche 911.
Exterior
The appearance of the car is attractive and you can’t argue with that; in any case, it will not be left unattended on the road. In front, we can observe a smooth hood, branded optics and a massive bumper. There are air intakes on the bumper that divert air to the front brakes to cool them, and there are also thin daytime running lights on the bumper.
Looking at the Porsche Boxster from the side, you can immediately notice that the cover fuel tank located near the front wheel, and not behind, as many are used to. Large wheel arches are not very swollen, they are 18th wheels on alloy wheels. On the door, we can observe a deep, rather large stamping, which leads air to the air intake for engine cooling. Also, the rear-view mirror mounted on a high leg will attract your attention, it looks really cool.
The back of the convertible will please us with a small aggressive LED optics, the headlights of which are connected by a spoiler with a brake light repeater. Massive rear bumper has a plastic diffuser at the bottom, into which the engineers inserted one large exhaust pipe in the middle.
Convertible dimensions:
- length - 4374 mm;
- width - 1801 mm;
- height - 1282 mm;
- wheelbase - 2475 mm;
- ground clearance - 100 mm.

by the most powerful engine is a 3.4-liter gasoline naturally aspirated boxer engine that produces 330 Horse power. The dynamics of the motor does not differ much from the previous one, or rather, it does not differ at all in terms of acceleration, except that the maximum speed has increased to 281 km / h. At the same time, the unit consumes almost 13 liters in the city and only seven on the highway, but only 98th gasoline is required.
The third generation was already equipped with a slightly different engine, although in fact it is the same engine, but it has changed slightly in volume and now the volume is 2.7 liters. The number of cylinders in the engine remained the same, and the power was increased to 265 horsepower. As a result, this car picks up speed of 100 km / h in 5.8 seconds, and the maximum speed is 264 km / h. This engine consumes approximately 11 liters of fuel in urban mode, and if the buyer chooses a robotic gearbox, then its consumption will decrease by a liter in urban quiet movement.
The new generation has a volume of 3.4 liters and produces 315 horsepower. a hundred this car picks up in 5.1 seconds, and its maximum speed is 279 km / h. Despite the fact that the power is increased by a good amount of horsepower, the fuel consumption of the car has increased by only a liter.
Both new cars are still rear-wheel drive, and are equipped with either a six-speed or a seven-speed robotic gearbox from .
Salon Porsche Boxster
Sitting inside, you will understand how much Porsche bothers about ergonomics, everything is in the right place, everything is easy to get to, the interior seems to be created for you. There are only two seats inside and at the same time there is no feeling of crowding, the driver and passenger will feel quite comfortable, they will have the amount of space they need and more is not necessary here.
Most likely, you can guess that the entire interior is sheathed with quality materials. The buyer himself chooses what skin color he needs and at the same time he can choose it partially, that is, the seats in one color, the panel in another, etc. The driver will get a three-spoke sports steering wheel in his hands, which can have a multimedia system control selector and conveniently located petals, but only as an option, in the base there is a regular leather steering wheel with rear petals, as everyone is used to.
Also interestingly done dashboard, these are three wells, one of which has a speedometer inserted, the second a tachometer, and the third is a fully on-board computer with almost any information about the condition of the Porsche Boxster 2012-2016. If the buyer buys a car with robotic box gears, then there will be an indicator on the steering wheel that will show the most successful moment for shifting gears.
The upper part of the center console received an analog clock, made in a sporty style. Below we are waiting for a large display of the multimedia and navigation system, it is touch-sensitive, but below it there are buttons and various sectors to control it. That is, manage as it is convenient for you, for this the manufacturer is a plus. On this, roughly speaking, the center console ends, as one large tunnel goes further.
At the very beginning of the tunnel there are climate control controls, which are made in a slightly unusual style, but they are immediately convenient to use, since it is still clear what is responsible for what. Next, we are met by the gearbox selector, under which the buttons for setting the behavior of the car are already hidden, that is, turning off some systems or turning on the sports mode, and so on.
There is a trunk here and it is not small for such a car, but it is unlikely that anyone is interested in it, who will use it on such a car? Well, if it is important to someone, then the volume of the luggage compartment here is 280 liters.
Price
Sales ended due to the release of the 718 model. Next, we’ll tell you what the price tags were, and now the owners are selling this particular version for 3 million on average. The model was provided to the buyer in four different trim levels, he already chooses what he wants there, there is also a huge number additional options.

- air conditioner;
- active power steering;
- tire pressure sensor;
- light and rain sensor;
- xenon optics and adaptive lighting system;
- start-stop;
- leather interior.
Now the convertible has been withdrawn from sale due to the release, and these copies are present on the used market from average price in 3,000,000 rubles depending on the configuration.
The most expensive equipment, respectively, has the most powerful motor and it cost almost twice as much, while inside it practically did not differ from the base. You can diversify the interior only with the help of options.
List of options:
- multi-steering wheel with heating;
- seat ventilation and heating;
- climate control;
- rear parking sensors;

Video
Since its debut in 1996, the Porsche Boxter has been produced in a single body style - a soft-top roadster. And only as an additional equipment it was sold a hard removable roof - a hardtop. The look of Boxter was created with an eye on successful model 50s last century 550 Spyder.
Under the hood of the Boxter of the first years of production was a boxer "six" with a displacement of 2.5 liters with a capacity of 204 hp, which in 1999 was replaced by a more powerful engine with a volume of 2.7 l / 228 hp. At the same time, a “hot” version of the Boxster S appeared with a 3.2 l / 260 hp engine.
In autumn 2004, the model was updated. This car has not lost its familiar look. The appearance of the original Boxter turned out to be so attractive that improvements were made only in detail.
The body was wider, the wheel arches and air intakes on the rear fenders noticeably increased. Bumpers and lighting equipment also slightly changed shape. All this brought even more elegance and at the same time aggression to the appearance of the roadster.
The main external difference from the previous Boxter is oval headlights with integrated turn signals instead of boomerang-shaped block headlights, in which all the front lighting equipment was assembled under a common cap. Now fog lights and turn signal repeaters have taken more familiar places in the front bumper. Other exterior changes include new bumpers, wider track, 18-inch wheel disks and more expressive rear fenders with enlarged engine cooling air intakes. But in general - the same proportions, the same silhouette.
The new Boxster is one of the most safe cars in class. Serially began to install airbags to protect the head. In the event of a side impact, they automatically "shoot" from a special module under the side window, thereby complementing the standard side "curtains" in the backs of the seats.
The base Boxter and the "hot" Boxter S hit the market at the same time. The first one is set in motion boxer engine displacement of 2.7 liters, which develops 240 horsepower (12 horsepower more than its predecessor). Such a car with a five-speed “mechanics” picks up the first “hundred” in 6.2 seconds and reaches 256 km / h. The Boxter S is equipped with a 3.2-liter unit with 280 horsepower (+ 20 horsepower) mated to a six-speed mechanical box. Acceleration from standstill to 100 km / h in a more powerful roadster takes 5.5 seconds, top speed - 268 km / h. As an alternative to manual transmissions, a five-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission with manual shift mode is offered.
Porsche engineers have carried out a significant revision of the old engine. It consists in optimizing the operation of all systems. In particular, a new power supply system with two air dampers between cylinder heads. At a mark below 3500 rpm, they close - the 6-cylinder unit works like a 3-cylinder, which contributes to better implementation of torque. And only from 5500 rpm engine thrust is transferred to full power.
By the way, the maximum level of emissions of harmful substances easily fits into the modern Euro 4 standard, and fuel consumption with increased power was reduced from 10.6 to 10.4 liters.
The power unit is located deep in the vehicle, which gives the Boxter extra balance and stability, as well as more luggage space in front and behind. The most capacious luggage compartment with a volume of 150 liters is located in front. Is there some more luggage compartment- 130 liters - rear. The covers of both compartments are opened on command from the key fob or using the buttons on the threshold on the driver's side. Plus, the ability to stuff all sorts of small items - there is a fairly roomy glove compartment, under the armrests of the doors - niches, recesses in the thresholds and a compact box between the driver and passenger.
The designers managed to achieve a lower coefficient of aerodynamic drag of the body. The Boxter S managed to reduce this figure from 0.32 to 0.30, which is especially commendable when you take into account the more rigid body. In the standard model, this figure is even better - 0.29. First of all, the bottom was thoroughly worked out to organize a better flow of air flows under it. The goal is to minimize lift at high speeds. Plus, at the right time, a small spoiler comes out of the stern, providing additional downforce.
Inside, the changes are more dramatic. The completely renovated interior looks strict and modern. Perhaps the most important change to the interior is the all-new seats, which no longer feel as narrow as they used to. Developed lateral support, a steering wheel adjustable in two planes (height adjustment has appeared) - finding a comfortable position is not difficult for most drivers.
Ergonomics thought out to the smallest detail. Nothing distracts the driver from control. The position of the arrow on a huge tachometer in the center of the instrument panel can be "caught" even with peripheral vision. A small speedometer on the left, marked up to 280 km / h and with notches in increments of 10 km / h, here, rather, for beauty. The speed at a particular moment is perfectly informed by large numbers on the screen occupying the lower part of the tachometer. It also displays the readings of the on-board computer, including the navigation system.
The Boxster is easy to convert into a convertible. To do this, first you need to pull the lever above the rear-view mirror, and only then press the button for the electric soft top - after 12 seconds you will find yourself in the open air. It is noteworthy that the gas tank cap is located in the right front fender, and the ignition switch is located to the left of the steering column.
With the debut of the 2004 Boxster, the Stuttgart engineers achieved yet another breakthrough. Widened track, completely redesigned chassis, and rack and pinion steering with variable gear ratio- with an increase in the intensity of rotation, the greater the deflection of the steering wheel, the reactions become sharper - they could not help but contribute to the achievement best result. For a surcharge, “active” shock absorbers PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) are offered, which change their resistance depending on driving conditions.
The result of the efforts made is obvious: in the corners Boxter strictly adheres to the given trajectory. The car exactly reacts to the slightest deviations of the steering wheel, using all the trump cards of the overall neutral setting of the mechanism. The reserve potential of the chassis is so high that now the standard ESP stabilization system (Porsche calls it in its own way PSM, which stands for Porsche Stability Management) only occasionally has a serious reason to intervene. To top it all off, the level of ride comfort is also significantly improved – at least when the Boxter is equipped with PASM. In normal operation, the suspension quite gently works out the relief of the canvas. Sports mode will appeal to tough guys, who along the way will be able to enjoy the aggressive howls of the engine when you press the electronically controlled gas pedal.
An optional “sport-chrono-package” is installed: a stopwatch that allows you to measure the lap time on a sports track, as well as compare the results (they are stored in the computer’s memory), ESP and traction control.
Convertible Porsche Boxter and Boxter S 2007 model year received more power and torque, as well as an updated Tiptronic transmission, according to the German automaker. With the new variable valve timing system, VarioCam Plus Boxter has become more powerful by 5 horsepower, bringing their total score to 245, and the torque has increased from 269.8 to 272.5 Nm. With a five-speed manual gearbox Boxter "shoots" to 100 km / h in 5.8 seconds and a top speed of 257.5 km / h. A six-speed "automatic" increases the speed ceiling to 260.7 km / h.
On the Boxter S, the engine size has grown from 3.2 to 3.4 liters, and power has grown by 15 hp. - up to 295 hp The torque is 340 Nm. Boxter S accelerates to “hundreds” in 5.1 seconds and reaches a top speed of 272 km/h. Rounding out the package are a tire pressure monitor and a Sport Chrono bodykit.
The Boxster is a sleek, fast, truly sporty "selfish" car for everyday use. The real Porsche. Shaking, noisy and - delicious, capable of producing as much adrenaline in your body as you want to take.
