They also talked about the all-electric next-generation 718 Boxster and Cayman that are less than two years away from production
Porsche is slowly soldiering forward toward a time when the entire lineup features some sort of electrification. That includes a new generation of all-electric 718 variants and a hybrid 911. Now, new quotes from a couple of executives at Porsche shed more light on these important sports cars. During Rennsport Reunion 7, Michael Steiner, a Porsche board member told Motortrend that The 911 will be, definitely, if at all, the last that will be electrified.
We fully expect the first of its kind to follow the same strategy that Chevrolet has with the Corvette, namely, that it'll go into a high-performance trim first. When asked for specifics, Moser said Maybe two years. What is certain is that within two years the new all-electric 718 variants will arrive. Both are slated for sale as 2025 model-year units. The big question on everybody's mind though is what exactly they'll sound like.
