Porsche is celebrating the 20th anniversary of its Boxster series. To mark the occasion, it's renamed the latest generation the 718 Boxster. It comes with a newly developed, turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and has an output of 257 kW. This is a continuation of Porsche's 4-cylinder engines that are characteristic for its 718 sports car series.

They won many victories in the 1950s and 1960s, like the legendary Targa Florio and the 24 hours of Le Mans. The open-top, two-seater 718 Boxster S is more powerful, efficient and lighter than its predecessor.
