2012 Porsche Boxster: Porsche should be congratulated for lowering the weight across the board for the new 981 model. Even if they’re a bit shy about putting a number to that weight loss. As we’ve previously reported, though, it’s around 15kg. Other changes include a longer wheelbase, wider track and shorter overhangs. That’s right, this Boxster should be even more precise than the old 987 model.
Following the proven path the Boxster is available in two models, a 2.7 litre flat six with 195kW, and the S model, featuring a 3.4 litre flat six with 232kW. If you get the optional 7-speed PDK transmission you’ll reach 100km/h in 5.7 seconds in the entry level Boxster, while the S will do it in 5.0 seconds.
