Experience the thrill of open-top motoring with the Porsche 718 Boxster 2.5 S (2017), a mid-engine roadster that redefines driving purity for the Philippine roads. This car blends Porsche’s legendary engineering with a turbocharged heart, delivering an uncompromised sports car experience that’s both exhilarating and refined.

Under the rear deck lies a turbocharged 2.5-liter Flat-4 engine producing 350 HP at 6500 rpm and 420 Nm of torque from 1900–4500 rpm. Paired with a lightning-fast 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission and rear-wheel drive, it launches from 0–100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds (manufacturer claim) and hits a top speed of 285 km/h. The MacPherson suspension at all four corners and electric power steering ensure razor-sharp handling, while disc brakes with ABS, EBD, and Brake Assist provide confident stopping power.

Key Highlights

  • Turbocharged Power: 350 HP and 420 Nm from a 2.5L Flat-4 with DOHC 16-valve valvetrain and 9.5:1 compression ratio.
  • Open-Air Freedom: Cabriolet body with a power-operated soft top, offering instant convertible luxury.
  • Driver-Focused Cabin: Leather seats, automatic climate control, keyless entry, and a touchscreen infotainment system with Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, USB, AUX, and CD/MP3 playback.
  • Safety Essentials: Dual front airbags, central locking, security alarm, and a full suite of braking aids—ABS, EBD, and Brake Assist.
  • Distinctive Styling: HID headlights, fog lights, daytime running lights, and 19-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 235/40 R19 tires.
  • Lightweight Construction: Unibody chassis with a curb weight of just 1355 kg for agile, responsive handling.

For the discerning Filipino driver who values pure driving pleasure and iconic design, the Porsche 718 Boxster 2.5 S (2017) is a rare gem. With a price in the Philippines of ₱7,300,000 and a 2-year unlimited warranty, this car suits enthusiasts seeking a weekend thrill or a statement daily driver—though its two-seat layout and lack of rear seats make it ideal for solo adventures or couples. Priced competitively in the premium roadster segment, it offers unmatched Porsche pedigree and turbocharged performance for those who demand the best.
