The Most Evil Porsche 718 Cayman And Boxster Received A Branded "robot". And They Became Even Angrier

Porsche has unveiled the characteristics of the 718 Cayman coupe and the 718 Boxster roadster with a 4.0-liter "six" and a robotic PDK box - previously they were equipped only with "mechanics". Sports cars are noticeably faster.

• The Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 and 718 Spyder are equipped with a 420-horsepower version of the boxer naturally aspirated engine, but in the version with PDK the amount of torque is increased from 420 to 430 Nm. In addition, specifically for these sports cars, Porsche has changed the gear ratios of the robotic gearbox and improved the limited-slip differential.
• Coupe and roadster accelerate to 100 km / h in 3.9 seconds - half a second faster than modifications with "mechanics". In the case of the 400-horsepower 718 Cayman and 718 Boxster in the GTS 4.0 version, the improvement in dynamics was the same half a second: the first “hundred” coupe and roadster will gain in 4 seconds.
• The standard equipment of sports cars with a 400-horsepower version of the "six" includes an optional Sport Chrono package, and for the 420-horsepower variants, the range of body shades has been expanded. In addition, new options for the design of the rims have appeared. On the 718 Cayman GT4 and 718 Spyder, the PDK robot selector will follow the same styling as on the Porsche 911 GT3.

• The appearance in all four sports cars of versions with a robotic transmission was announced back in June, but then the manufacturer announced only prices for North America, keeping silent about the characteristics.

• In the US, a 420-horsepower coupe and a roadster with PDK will cost $ 100,510 and $ 103,410, respectively, a 400-horsepower - about 3 thousand cheaper. In Russia, the price of sports cars with a boxer "six" and a manual transmission starts at 5,950,000 rubles for the 718 Cayman GTS 4.0.
