Boxster 718 2.0L PDK (300 Bhp)

The 718 Boxster PDK 2.0ltr was introduced in January 2016, and premiered at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show.

The 718 featured a  horizontally-opposed flat-4 turbocharged engine at 2.0ltr displacement with increased torque and horsepower with lower fuel consumption matched to a 7-speed Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) dual clutch gearbox.

The exterior of the 718 Boxster is very similar to the third generation, more of an evolution than a redesign. The most notable changes are to the rear of the car, which now has a long black-trim bar across the rear connecting the two taillights. The headlights and bumper are also heavily reworked. On the sides, the mirrors have been redesigned, taking hue from the SportDesign mirrors on the GT3.The updated cockpit of the 718 has the 4th generation of the Porsche PCM system, indicated by the display without bezels. This model has multifunction steering wheel controls.

The interior remains very similar to the 981 Boxster and the 991.2 generation of the Porsche 911. The main change is the new PCM 4.0 infotainment system, which replaces the PCM 3.1. If the optional Sport Chrono package is present, the steering wheel comes with a mode selector switch that includes a selection of Sports and Sports Plus driving modes, resulting in snappier throttle response at the cost of fuel efficiency. Overall, the most prominent design features of the 981 Cayman / Boxster remain, including large air induction ports on the side, and the prominent horizontal aluminium piece used for adding oil and coolant in the trunk.
