Even the Porsche 911 has embraced a hybrid powertrain via its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stuttcars.com\/2025-porsche-911-gts-hybrid-in-depth-guide\/\">upcoming &#8220;992.2&#8221; face-lifted models<\/a>. Exact specifications for the incoming 718 Cayman EV are still scarce at best, and most of the information out there is derived mostly from speculation or creative thinking. What we do know for sure though, is that the next few months are going to be the final window in which you can order what will <em>likely<\/em> be the last iteration of a gas-powered Cayman and\/or Boxster.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-847672\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Porsche-718-Boxster-EV-Test-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a reason I&#8217;ve written that last sentence with a relatively open-minded tone. As an optimist\u2014and knowing what I think I know about Porsche\u2014there&#8217;s still a chance that we could see some form of a non-EV Cayman or Boxster persevere in this new era. Perhaps a hybrid powertrain could be reserved for the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/porsche-x-la-auto-show-porsche-718-cayman-gt4-rs-specs-revealed\/\">an RS variant<\/a>? Or, could we see it return for certain anniversary models? At the end of the day, it&#8217;s just a thought and there&#8217;s nothing more in it than just a purist&#8217;s biggest wishes.<\/p>\n<p>Other outlets tend to be a bit more hard-lined in their assessments, in that they&#8217;ve determined that there will be no more gas-powered (hybrid or ICE) Caymans and Boxsters, period. It&#8217;s been reported that Porsche won&#8217;t invest in a next-gen combustion engine for the duo, although Albrecht Reimold\u2014Porsche&#8217;s Production Manager\u2014didn&#8217;t explicitly rule out the possibility of fitting a non-EV powertrain from another platform, into say, the hypothetical RS variant I mentioned earlier. Wishful thinking, or something to hope for?<\/p>\n<h2>Past Performance: The Best Indicator of Future Performance<\/h2>\n<p>In his interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.automobilwoche.de\/autohersteller\/porsche-vorstand-reimold-beliebte-verbrenner-verschwinden-schneller\">Automobilwoche<\/a>, Reimold went on to elaborate that he had already driven <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stuttcars.com\/2025-porsche-all-electric-718-boxster-testing\/\">the prototype 718 EV<\/a> and remarked it to be a <em>&#8220;real fun car&#8221;<\/em>, because, of course he did. But, if any automaker deserves the benefit of the doubt when it comes to fulfilling promises of that nature, it would be Porsche. Afterall, the German luxury car company has proven that it&#8217;s committed to those basic mantras through its first EV\u2014the precedence-setting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/?s=taycan+t%27s+corner\">Porsche Taycan<\/a>\u2014which over 5 years, has formed a very solid foundation on which to kick-start their EV-olution.<\/p>\n<p>With that being said, the 718 duo is not the first, or even second, fully-electric Porsche model to be produced\u2014that distinction goes to the Taycan and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/porsche-macan-ev-unveiling-livestream-coverage\/\">the new Macan EV<\/a>. However, it remains a very significant milestone in the overall context of the brand, as it will become their first EV &#8220;sports car&#8221;, with the aforementioned being distinctively utilitarian platforms in sedan and crossover configurations, respectively. In that way, it could serve as the template on how Porsche will integrate electric drivetrains with sporty 2-door coupes (and convertibles) going forward.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s both anecdotal and <a href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/news\/725967\/porsche-taycan-us-sales-2024q2\/\">data-backed conclusions<\/a> that can be made on whether going EV is the right decision\u2014for the 718, or just in general\u2014but it&#8217;s clear that Porsche will be pressing ahead, if not doubling-down, on its electrification strategy. The latest news confirms as much. But\u2014and it&#8217;s a <em>big<\/em> &#8220;<em>but&#8221;<\/em>\u2014there are still pathways that Porsche can take to preserve the combustion engine in some format, for some portion of its cars.

His first sortie with the brand began with a pre-owned 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S. Ever since, he\u2019s been captivated by P-cars, going on to own a 2020 Porsche Taycan 4S, 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS and most recently, a 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS. Attending high-performance driving events over the past 2 decades, Terence has taken almost every car he has owned to racetracks in his native Western Canada. Spurred on by his involvement with local motorsports communities, he then became a Porsche Club of America National Instructor and provides consulting and coaching services for HPDEs and driving schools in his region. Terence is also a contributor on other websites, such as stuttcars.com and sportscardigest.com, where he focuses on Porsche-related content.","url":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/author\/terence-w\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=469537"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469537\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":885614,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469537\/revisions\/885614"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/847674"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=469537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=469537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=469537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
