Porsche 718 Boxster GTS

The Porsche 718 Boxster GTS reaches 60 mph in 3.60 s (100 km/h in 3.78 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.97 s, tripping the lights at 117.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.89 s and the eighth mile in 7.74 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.67 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 718 Boxster GTS

The 2017 Porsche 718 Boxster GTS is a rear-drive turbocharged roadster of 1,375 kg with 359 bhp, which works out at 261 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 261 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.89 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 716th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 99th quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 117.1 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Porsche 718 Boxster GTS 0-60 time?
The Porsche 718 Boxster GTS reaches 60 mph in 3.60 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 716th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Porsche 718 Boxster GTS quarter mile time?
11.97 s at 117.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.74 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.89 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Porsche 718 Boxster GTS have?
359 bhp and 1,375 kg, which is 261 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 290 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Porsche 718 Boxster GTS?
Closest here on pace: Maybach SL 680 (3.54 s), Mercedes-AMG C 63 Cabriolet (A205) 4.0 V8 476 (3.71 s), Ferrari F430 Spyder (3.71 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 718 Boxster GTS in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Porsche 718 Boxster GTS is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
