    OFFICIAL : New Porsche Boxster 981

    Porsche Boxster is now official:

    The new generation Boxster - the mid-engine roadster from Porsche

    Stuttgart. Never in the history of the Porsche Boxster a generational change was so complete. The open two-seater comes with a completely new lightweight chassis and a completely revised chassis on the market. Significantly lower weight, longer wheelbase, wider track and larger wheels increase the class-leading driving dynamics of the distance with mid-engine sports car again clearly supported by the new electro-mechanical power steering. The new Boxster to base the performance and also up to 15 percent more fuel efficient. They are content with much less model dependent than eight liters of fuel per 100 kilometers.

    The new Boxster solves one with what promises to fundamentally change the styling with shorter overhangs, significantly offset forward windscreen, flatter silhouette edges and expressive. About the occupants spans the completely redesigned, full electric roof, which does now without the tonneau cover. The interior concept offers the occupants more space and reflects the new Porsche-line with the rising center console, which makes the Carrera GT, starting in all models for a further improved ergonomics.

    The new sports car generation debut in the classic Porsche pairing Boxster and Boxster S. Both models are powered by six-cylinder boxer engine with gasoline direct injection, the efficiency with on-board network recuperation, thermal management and start-stop function is further increased. The new engine model provides the base 265 hp (195 kW) from 2.7 liters - ten horsepower more than the larger-displacement predecessor. It now technically based on the 3.4-liter engine in the Boxster S. This now makes 315 hp (232 kW) and thus five more horsepower than before. Both models come standard with a manual six-speed gearbox, the Porsche double-clutch gearbox (PDK) seven-speed is available on request. With PDK both achieved top marks in her sports car fuel consumption and acceleration. The consumption with PDK is for the Porsche Boxster to 7.7 l/100 km for the Boxster S at 8.0 l/100 km. The Boxster accelerates with gear changes with uninterrupted traction in 5.7 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h, the Boxster S in 5.0 seconds.

    To further increase the driving dynamics of Porsche Boxster for the optional Sport Chrono package, which includes the first dynamic transmission bearings. Also new for the Boxster is Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV) with a mechanical rear axle differential lock.

    The launch of the new Boxster generation is on 14.04.2012. The reason Prices in Germany € 48 291 € 59 120 for the Boxster and the Boxster S, each including 19% VAT.

    Very nice. Actually, I like it very much. Finally, Porsche puts LSD on Boxster. When is the new Cayman coming?

    OK, the rear is debatable but overall, the new Boxster looks very nice but maybe a little bit too stylish...for a male audience. Just saying... angry

    I expected a little bit more on the engine side (280 and 330 hp were rumored recently) but apparently Porsche wants to keep a "safe" distance to the 991. As always... 

    Here are more photos, especially the interior. The new daylight running lights also look nice.

    The most beautiful Boxster shape I've ever seen by a long way. PAG will not be able to build this car fast enough to meet demand. Very stylish - I love it - bravo to PAG on the looks :)

    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    True. I prefer the Boxster S full black gills at front though.


    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    The front looks to me like it is strongly influenced by the 918 Spyder ... love the side vents too ... this is thing of real beauty IMO :)

    Agreed!  Very nice!  Smiley

    So the rear spoiler is fixed on all models, none of them lift further at speed?


    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    They do lift on both models.

    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    That looks fantastic, well played PAG! cool


    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    This is the most beautiful new porsche in years imo, the 991 looks stunning too, but is less innovative in design.

    The boxster becomes a real grownup !

    great job! Shame the acc. figures aren't competitive with the 911, otherwise i would doubt between those too.

    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    Very successful evolution by Porsche kiss The car looks much more "expensive" with the sculptured doors and the new side intake. I'm not so sure about the winglets on the rear lights; I have to see them in reality to be convinced.

    The Boxster is basically a B and C roads fun-roadster and for that  315PS especially with PDK, are more than enough to match its superb handling.

    Re: OFFICIAL : Porsche Boxster 981

    I love it!
    To me, it looks more masculine than the previous boxster models.
    The only (optical) mishaps they made in my opinion:

    1. The inner area of the side inlets should be body color (like on the exclusive models)
    2. The DRT's should have run along the entire upside of the front inlets, rather than only a part of it.

    For the rest, it looks wonderful, I'd order this one in a heartbeat:
