The Porsche 718 Cayman and Boxster twins have already been axed in Europe due to cybersecurity laws. All-electric replacements are in the works and could launch next year. The new electric sports cars will be underpinned by Porsche’s SSP Sport architecture. Thrilling, rear-wheel drive sports cars with fiery combustion engines are becoming increasingly rare and in October 2025, production will cease on the 718 Cayman and Boxster models, killing the mid-engined icon we’ve come to know and love.
It says that “end of production for all 982 models is currently planned for October 2025.” That means keen shoppers have less than 18 months to secure an allocation before the two models go the way of the dodo. While it’s a shame the 718 duo will be killed off as we know it, we thought it may be axed from global markets before the fourth quarter of 2025.
