Porsche 718 Boxster S

The Porsche 718 Boxster S reaches 60 mph in 3.63 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 12.04 s, tripping the lights at 115.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.90 s and the eighth mile in 7.78 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.85 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 S

The 2016 Porsche 718 Boxster S is a rear-drive turbocharged roadster of 1,355 kg with 345 bhp, which works out at 254 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 254 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.90 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 577th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 96th quickest of the 279 Porsches here. Its 115.9 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.

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 S 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 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
