2025 Porsche 718 Boxster

The 2025 Porsche 718 Boxster is a luxury sports convertible with two seats. The 718 Boxster is for drivers seeking a sports car with eager driving dynamics and a wealth of optional amenities.

Porsche gives buyers a choice of several powertrains. The base engine is a 4-cylinder with 300 horsepower, and a 350-horsepower four-cylinder is also on the roster. A 4.0-liter 6-cylinder makes 394 horsepower in the GTS and 493 horsepower in the top Spyder RS. Rear-wheel drive (RWD) is standard, and buyers can choose a 6-speed manual or 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

This Porsche’s engines are built to impress. Every powertrain in the lineup is a winner, but the 4.0-liter 6-cylinder is your best bet for maximizing the thrill quotient. Responsive driving dynamics complement the engines, making the 718 Boxster a blast to drive.

Endless customization options allow you to tailor this car to suit your specific vision. Available add-ons include LED headlights, ventilated seats, and upgraded Bose and Burmester audio systems.

There are also some shortcomings to keep in mind. The 718 Boxster has a relatively steep price, costing more than many rivals in its class, yet its competitors have more tech features.
