Here's your first look at the all-electric Porsche 718 Boxster.

Spy photographers managed to catch this black-painted, camouflaged-clad prototype of the all-electric 718 Boxster driving on the road, giving us our best look yet at what the production version may look like. Despite dropping the internal combustion engine altogether, the car still maintains a mid-engine silhouette, with a two-seat forward cabin.

Minor fascia updates to the bumper and lights are hidden with camouflage, but other details are easy to spot. The intakes on either side of the car—a signature feature on the 718 lineup—have been deleted entirely, as there's no engine in need of airflow, while the single central-mounted exhaust out back is very clearly fake. We suspect the funky rear decklid and bumper are only there for testing purposes.

I want! But it'll prob be too expensive. Boxsters used to be inexepensive in the good old days.

Porsche is really messing up the flowing lines on the rear of their cars 🙄

Fortunately it still looks like a mule. Hopefully the finished product looks closer to the Mission R.

What's with the fake fart pipe?

Reminds me of this to be honest.

All that Formula E research is gonna produce a kickass sports car from the Stuttgart gang.

😢

wouldn't you give it a new name? or at least a new number...

Send it back where it came from

Ew

Was it in a crash?

All the Boxster 90% of the market needs.

New, gigantic, USB connector

jenzfc need

the design seems a bit lazy, step 1, stick taycan bits onto the current boxster, step 2, done.

It's not a Boxster anymore.

Literally yawning

I'd rather see the Boxter name retired.

I could not want a car less.

The unintended consequence of electric vehicles: More demand for manual transmissionsWhen Nissan launched the all-new, seventh-generation Z sports car, company executives had a specific requirement: a manual transmission. Yes. Because holding a stick in your hands makes some weak men feel like they have something powerful in their hands and under their control. How many clutches will have to be replaced when they start driving them. LOL We don't care about electric cars because the average normal American citizen can never be able to afford one. I live on a fixed income I've never been able to afford any brand new car under the Democratic regime. Much less an electric one.
