2021 Porsche 718 Boxster Trims & Specs

Four trims are on offer in the 718 Boxster range, but telling them apart is fairly tricky. Fortunately, different colors for brakes and exhaust tips help. The base and Boxster T models come with a 2.0-liter turbocharged boxer-four with 300 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque while the Boxster S gets a 2.5-liter turbo with 350 hp and 309 lb-ft. The range-topper is the GTS 4.0 and, as the name suggests, it comes with a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six generating 394 hp and the same torque as the S. The available PDK automatic increases this torque figure to 317 lb-ft. This model is easily differentiated by its unique fascias, but all models come with bi-xenon headlights and an adaptive rear wing. Standard features on all models also extend to a six-speed manual transmission, a six-speaker sound system, and an infotainment system with Apple CarPlay but no Android Auto. The Boxster T and GTS also feature some slight performance differences, but all models handle like they’re on rails.
