2017 Porsche 718 Cayman Review | Edmunds

Edmunds Senior Writer Carlos Lago tests and reviews the 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman. As far as sports cars go, few offer the driving satisfaction of a mid-engine Porsche. But the new Cayman's change from a six-cylinder to a four-cylinder engine design came as a shock. The new engine brings a number of performance and fuel-efficiency benefits, but it doesn't sound anything like you remember. The more powerful Cayman S impressed us with its capabilities, but what about the standard model with the smaller engine? That's what we aim to find out with this review. Q: What kind of engine and transmission does the 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman have? A: The Porsche 718 Cayman has a turbocharged 2.0-liter flat-four that makes 300 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, while the more expensive S variant upgrades to a 2.5-liter flat-four with 350 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed manual is standard, and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is optional. Q: How much does the Porsche 718 Cayman cost? A: Our 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman test car starts at $54,950. The legendarily long Porsche options list allows owners to tailor their cars how they see fit, but prices rise quickly. As tested, our 718 Cayman totals $70,635, which we figure is close to how most Caymans will leave the dealer. Q: How fast is the Porsche 718 Cayman? A: During testing, the 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman reached 60 mph in 4.3 seconds (4.1 seconds with a 1-foot rollout, as on a drag strip) and clocked a quarter-mile time of 12.6 seconds at 108.5 mph. Q: What are the 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman's main competitors? A: Mid-engine sports cars are uncommon at this price. As far as sporty coupes go, the 718 Cayman's closest competition includes the Audi TT, the BMW M2 and the Chevrolet Corvette. Read our review here: https://www.edmunds.com/porsche/718-c...
