The Porsche 718 GTS offers an exciting blend of
performance and handling but drivers looking to get the most of the car will
want to hold off for the new 718 Cayman GT4.
Recently snapped undisguised, the Cayman GT4 is distinguished
by an aggressive front fascia and a small vent beneath the hood. The sporty
styling continues further back as the model has lightweight wheels and a
high-performance braking system with cross-drilled rotors and red brake
calipers. The model also features a fixed rear wing, an aggressive diffuser,
and a dual exhaust system.
While the previous model featured a 3.8-liter
flat-six engine derived from the 911 Carrera S, the all-new model will
reportedly have a detuned version of the 4.0-liter flat-six that resides in the
911 GT3. In the latter model, it produces 500 PS and 460 Nm of torque.
The engine is expected to produce at least 400 PS in the Cayman GT4 and that would give it an edge over the Cayman GTS
which has a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine developing 365 PS and up to 430 Nm of torque. Regardless of the final rating, the
model is expected to be offered with a manual transmission and an optional PDK
gearbox.
Rumors have suggested the Cayman GT4 could debut at
the Geneva Motor Show next month but we’ll find out soon enough.
