Spotted completely\u00a0camo free, the 2018\u00a0Porsche\u00a0Boxster\u00a0Spyder sports a traditional\u00a0manual folding roof and critical aerodynamic styling cues borrowed from the Boxster GTS<\/a>\u00a0and hides an exciting\u00a0secret beneath its elegant exterior.<\/p>\n

What intrigues us the most is what lies beneath the sporty exterior. Previous range-topping iterations of the Boxster is that they benefitted from the 370 horsepower flat-six 3.8-litre petrol engine borrowed from the 911 Carrera.<\/p>\n

Sources indicate the new 2018 Porsche Boxster Spyder is said to borrow the 4.0-litre flat-six motor from the eye-watering 911 GT3 lineup. Power figures have yet to surface online, but seeing as the Boxster GTS pushes out 365 horsepower and the 4-litre engine packs 494 hp, you can expect the 2018 Boxster Spyder to push out a figure between those numbers with select sources throwing around the 420 hp figure.<\/p>\n

We’ll have to wait and see about that though.<\/p>\n

You can still equip a manual with the 2018 Porsche Boxster Spyder<\/h3>\n

As standard, the convertible entry-level sports car comes with a six-speed manual gearbox even though other manufacturers appear to\u00a0be phasing out the hands-on transmission. However, a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic will be available.<\/p>\n

As this is the top spec’d\u00a02018 Porsche Boxster, many of the tech and comfort features will most likely\u00a0be removed, but those can all be\u00a0fitted back in for an additional fee of course.<\/p>\n

Porsche has yet to announce when the 2018 Porsche Boxster is to arrive; you can expect the model to launch early next year.<\/p>\n
