Porsche 718 Summary
Price
Porsche 718 price ranges between Rs. 1.71 Crore – Rs. 3.16 Crore depending on the variant selected.
Variants:
The Porsche 718 is available in Cayman, Boxster, Cayman Style Edition, Boxster Style Edition, Cayman GTS 4.0, Boxster GTS 4.0, Cayman GT4, Spyder, and Cayman GT4 RS.
Engine and Transmission:Â
For Porsche enthusiasts, the most important thing is its engineering. The 718 gets two brand new engines – a 2.0-litre and 2.5-litre four-cylinder engines. Porsche has also retained the signature boxer layout of the engines. The 2.0-litre 295bhp power and 380Nm torque engine will power the Boxster and the Cayman, while the ‘S’ versions will feature the 345bhp, 420Nm torque 2.5-litre mill. While globally, the 718s are available with manual options as well, in India, you will get the seven-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic gearbox with the optional Sport Chrono package that helps in quicker shifts.
Exterior:
The front bumper has been tweaked, and the three-part air dam looks sporty with the blacked-out mesh grille and the LED daytime running lamps. The headlamps get the optional quad LED setup and looks menacing. While the profile is the same, the tail has got a complete makeover. The strip connecting the two LED tail lamps separates the rear bumper from the fender and looks dapper.
Interior:Â
On the inside, it gets a stylish Panamera-like layout with an integrated touch-screen display for the infotainment system. The classic three-spoke steering wheel gets paddle shifters for the automatic transmission.
Safety and features:Â
It gets a three-round ascending centre console, a sports steering wheel, instrument cluster with rev counters. Besides this, it also gets a lightweight stainless steel exhaust system with a rear silencer and two clear tailpipes. What’s more, it gets Dynamic Light System Plus, a headlight cleaning system, and Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) with a rear differential lock.
Seating arrangement:Â
The Porsche 718 is a two-seater car.
Colours:
It is available in 34 different colours – Toupe, Dolomite Silver Metallic, Yellow, White, Silver, Grey, Chilli Red, Firebrick, Aventurine Green Metallic, Granite Black, Gray, Silver Metallic, Gunmetal Black, Chalk, Teal, Shark Blue, Snow White Pearl, Midnight Blue, Guards Red, Polar White, Battleship Gray, Carrara White, Platinum, Carmine Red, Jet Black Metallic, Lava Orange, Gentian Blue Metallic, Black, Midnight Black, Agate Grey Metallic, Racing Yellow, Python Green, Scarlet Red, and Frozen Berry Metallic.

Porsche 718 Car Review
Porsche 718 Spyder - First Look
Earlier this year, Porsche India landed the drop-top version of the 718 Cayman GT4 on the Indian shores. Based on and mechanically identical to the hard-top Cayman GT4, this convertible has dropped its Boxster suffix and is now referred to as the 718 Spyder. Besides that, it has the same gorgeous looks, corner carving, throttle blipping, and the wind-in-the-hair thrill you would expect from a two-door Porsche. Recently, we got a chance to meet the 718 Spyder in person and here are the details.
How is it on the outside?
The 718 has a low-slung stance and sits on a set of 20-inch alloy wheels. While the silver finish is offered as standard, the one we see here is optional that comes painted in satin black. Besides this, the front fascia gets the signature bi-Xenon headlights housed in a tinted cluster. For enhanced downforce, the front bumper gets large central and side air intakes as well as a lip spoiler with ‘Spyder’ embossing.
The rear deck flows down to a wing spoiler that is auto-deployed at speeds over 120kmph. Our personal favourite are the tinted LED tail lamps and the redesigned functional diffuser that generates proper downforce and reduces the overall lift by almost 50 per cent. And of course, it comes with the sonorous blacked-out dual-sport exhaust system that will make you grin every time you mash the throttle.
Now, it is worth noting that the soft top on the Spyder has a partial electric mechanism. Once the roof latch is unhooked electrically, the fabric top needs to be detached or put back by hand. Apart from this, the badging at the rear also gets a contrast black finish.
How is it on the inside?
Open the frameless doors and you are greeted by a plush looking cabin. The two-way electrically adjustable Sports Seats Plus are standard fitment. Also, the heated multifunctional steering wheel, door panel armrests, and centre console are generously draped in black Alcantara that is further accentuated with the use of contrast red stitching.
The headrests get the special ‘Spyder’ emblem while the internal door handles are swapped for door pulls. Other highlights of this 718 include an electric parking brake, reverse parking camera, a touchscreen infotainment system, two 12V sockets, and a 4.6-inch coloured display on the instrument cluster. This minuscule also packs in a fair amount of storage spaces. It has fore and aft luggage space, dashboard-integrated two individual cup holders, and door pockets.
Engine
This topless 718 has the same mid-engine layout and is powered by the 4.0-litre inline-six, naturally-aspirated engine. Available at the tap of the right foot is prodigious 414bhp and 420Nm of peak torque. The power is dispensed solely through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels darting the sports car to 100kmph from a standstill in just 3.9 seconds. It keeps you pinned in the seat until it reaches the top speed of 301kmph.
