The 718 Boxster is the sports car that makes every drive feel like an event.
The 2026 Porsche 718 Boxster is a masterclass in sports car engineering, blending sublime handling with smooth, plentiful power that makes us crave winding canyon roads. Its balance is nearly poetic, offering engaging handling and confident braking that instills a sense of control and excitement. What surprised us was its comfort on long trips—this isn't a car that punishes you for spending hours behind the wheel. However, the rough-sounding flat-four engines might not be to everyone's taste, and the standard cabin's excess plastic feels out of place in a car of this caliber. If you're considering a sports car that you can genuinely enjoy every day, the Boxster is compelling, particularly if you can overlook its storage limitations and hefty price tag.
