Porsche 718 boxster |
In its 718 Boxster, Porsche is deliberately revisiting the concept of
the legendary 718 mid-engine sports car. With its lightweight
construction, strong four-cylinder flat engine and precise chassis, it
won numerous international races in the 1950s and 1960s. Today the
four-cylinder power unit is water-cooled and turbocharged. From its two
litres of displacement, the new machine in the 718 Boxster delivers 220
kW (300 hp). The 718 Boxster S with a 2.5 litre four-cylinder engine
takes this figure up to 257 kW (350 hp) thanks to its turbocharger with
variable turbine geometry. Compared with previous Boxster models, this
corresponds to an increase of 26 kW (35 hp) in each case.

Porche 911 R
as a purist driving machine with a 368 kW (500 hp, 13.3 l/100 km; CO2
emissions: 308 g/km) naturally aspirated engine in the rear, the
Roadster with advanced chassis and turbocharged four-cylinder
mid-mounted engine. The 718 Boxster develops 220 kW (300 hp, 7.4 – 6.9
l/100 km; CO2 emissions: 168 - 158 g/km) of power from two
litres of engine displacement, while the 718 Boxster S attains 257 kW
(350 hp, 8.1 – 7.3 l/100 km; CO2 emissions: 184 - 167 g/km) from 2.5 litres of displacement.
By presenting the 911 R, Porsche is staging an almost traditional
opening to the European automobile year with an exceptional sports car.
In previous years, the 911 GT3, 918 Spyder and 919 hybrid
made their debuts in Geneva. The company is thus reaffirming its
undiminished commitment to motor racing and sports cars linked to the
world of motorsport.
