What is the Porsche 718 Boxster 0-60 time?

The Porsche 718 Boxster reaches 60 mph in 4.30 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 1,409th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Porsche 718 Boxster quarter mile time?

12.92 s at 107.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.31 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.01 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Porsche 718 Boxster have?

296 bhp and 1,335 kg, which is 222 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 275 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Porsche 718 Boxster?

Closest here on pace: Lexus LC 500 Convertible 5.0 V8 471 (4.29 s), Jaguar F-Type Convertible 3.0 380 (4.36 s), Maserati GranSport Spyder 4.2 V8 Cambiocorsa 390 (4.39 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 718 Boxster 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 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.

About the 718 Boxster

The 2016 Porsche 718 Boxster is a rear-drive turbocharged roadster of 1,335 kg with 296 bhp, which works out at 222 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 222 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.01 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 1,409th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 171st quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 107.6 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.
