09 Boxster to be faster and more economical
Although the freshened up Boxster, due out next year, would appear to have had only a cosmetic makeover, under the skin of the new car lies the newly developed engine which delivers more power and uses less fuel. The basic engine offers 2.9 litre and 225bhp whilst the 3.4 litre version in the S model delivers 310bhp.
The suspension has been tweaked to create a better drive and more comfort. Modification of the valve control map on the steering transmission serves to reduce steering forces, giving the Boxster a ‘more agile and spontaneous steering behaviour’.
Expect to reach 62mph in just 5.9 secs in the more powerful version.
The next generation Boxsters will be available from February 2009 with the standard model costing from £34,420 and the S version costing from £41,250. A luxury option for the car leasing market.
