      <p>Both Boxster models are equipped with brand new engine developments. The Boxster has a larger capacity, performance-enhanced, water-cooled six-cylinder Boxer engine that is free revving, with optimum load change and extremely smooth running. With a perfectly matched interplay of all engine components, the Boxster now develops 188 kW (255 hp).</p>
      <p>VarioCam Plus in conjunction with the optimised intake manifold ensures high torque even at low speeds, and excellent power development in the upper rev range. Maximum torque is available over a wide rev range, reaching 290 Nm between 4,400 and 6,000 rpm.</p>
      <p>The engine in the Boxster S features direct fuel injection (DFI). This means even more power: the 3.4-litre power plant develops 228 kW (310 hp) at a maximum torque of 360 Nm between 4,400 and 5,500 rpm.</p>
      <p>For incredible driving performance and higher torque, especially in the lower rev range, with a reduction in fuel consumption of up to 15%* and in CO2 emissions of up to 16%. Achieved by DFI and VarioCam Plus technology.</p>
      <p class="footnote">* These data were obtained using the Euro 5 measurement method (715/2007/EC and 692/2008/EC) in the NEDC (New European Driving Cycle) with standard equipment. The information does not refer to an individual vehicle and is not part of the offer, but is simply provided so that comparisons can be made between different types of vehicle.
