Muscular haunches rise in the rear, wrapping around the simple, tidy butt. Inside, the Cayman is all modern Porsche, we can see with clean lines and smooth surfaces broken only by an array of buttons. Two engines are available in the actual 2018 Cayman, to match the two main trim lines. The base Cayman gets the 2.7-liter flat six-cylinder rated at 275 hp; the Cayman S gets a 3.4-liter flat six great for 325 hp. Six-speed manual and seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmissions are for sale to both models.
When equipped with PDK and also the Sport Chrono, the base Cayman accelerates to 60 mph in only 5.1 seconds; the Cayman S can make the run in 4.6 seconds. Regardless of the brisk acceleration and strong horsepower outputs, the actual Cayman is surprisingly fuel efficient. Gas mileage ratings for that base Cayman, per the EPA, are 20 mpg town, 30 mpg highway and 24 mpg combined with manual transmission and 22/32/26 mpg with PDK. The Cayman S rates 20/28/23 mpg using the manual and 21/30/24 with the PDK.
The Cayman handles at least along with the Boxster and Boxster S it shares its core architecture with; in other words, it is brilliant. The Boxster's electric power steering is probably the best in the industry, and the Cayman's is just as good. In fact, the only real difference between your Boxster and the Cayman, aside from just a little extra power in the Cayman's favor, may be the roof. Available equipment and features are amazing, with a decided bent toward the luxury end from the spectrum, though without some of the heightened technology and safety items you'll find farther in the Porsche range.
Much of the Cayman's function set is optional, it's meaning the price will rise for each gadget and gizmo you increase the purchase list. Some of the highlights from the options list include: Porsche Communications Management, or even PCM, which offers a seven-inch touchscreen show, CD/DVD/MP3 player, available six-disc CD/DVD changer, iPod/USB online connectivity, navigation, and more; a Bose Surround Sound system with 445 watts and 10 speakers; a range of three different steering wheels, one with multi-function sound, phone, and navigation controls;
A choice associated with three seating options, including the standard activity seats, power sport seats, and adaptive activity seats with available heating and ventilation; a leather interior package to enhance the feel and look of the dash, doors, and more; dual-zone automated climate control; built-in quad-band GSM telephone; along with a "light design" package that adds dimmable, multi-zone LED illumination towards the cabin.
Neither the National Highway Traffic Security Administration (NHTSA) nor the Insurance Institute with regard to Highway Safety (IIHS) have crash-tested the 2018 Porsche Cayman, but having a rigid aluminum chassis, potent brakes, advanced traction force and stability controls, plus a full enhance of airbags including Porsche Side Impact Safety System (POSIP), the Cayman should prove to be a safe sports coupe in case of an accident.
