NEXT STAGE: Addition in 2020
Porsche is introducing its flat-six engine to the 718 Boxster GTS family, replacing the current four-cylinder models. The redesigned 718 Boxster GTS 4.0, which will arrive in stores at the end of the year, has a new 4.0-liter naturally aspirated six-cylinder engine adopted from the 718 Cayman GT4 and 718 Spyder.
A variant with an optional seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission will arrive early next year. This transmission offers the potential for quicker acceleration through rapid and seamless shifts, Porsche said.
