The Boxster was last redesigned 5 years ago at which point the introduction of the turbocharged flat-four spawned a name change to 718 Boxster as a nod to similarly powered Porsche race cars of the 50s and 60s. And the previous GTS, which took the 2020 model year off, was also powered by a 2.5-liter turbo leading some Porsche aficionados to cry foul. Well, your pleas were answered as this new 718 GTS receives a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-6. Now, it doesn’t make it lighter or any quicker but there’s a distinct sound and throttle response here that makes it feel even more Porsche.
