Porsche To Phase Out Gas-Powered Boxsters and Caymans by End of the Year
Porsche to End Production of Gas-Powered Boxster and Cayman Models by End of 2025
Porsche has officially announced that it will phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) versions of its iconic Boxster and Cayman sports cars by the end of 2025. This move aligns with the company’s long-term strategy to electrify its vehicle lineup and meet increasingly stringent global emissions standards.
Electric Future: What to Expect
According to Porsche, the final batches of gasoline-powered Boxsters and Caymans will be produced in limited numbers before the company transitions to fully electric or hybrid variants of both models. The announcement reflects Porsche’s commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility, while preserving the brand’s signature performance DNA.
A Legacy Comes to a Turning Point
This marks a major milestone in our journey toward a sustainable future — one where we maintain the thrill of driving while radically improving our environmental footprint,” said Michael Steiner, Porsche’s Vice President of Product Development
The successor models, including the long-awaited all-electric 718 platform, are expected to debut in 2026, promising enhanced performance, range, and a purist driving experience in a new electric format.
Porsche is following a broader industry trend toward electrification, aiming to reduce emissions and stay ahead of tightening environmental regulations in key markets like the EU, the US, and China.
Yes. Porsche plans to release limited final editions of both models as a tribute to their legacy — likely to become sought-after future classics.
Porsche promises that the all-electric successors will deliver equal or better performance, precise handling, and innovative design — all while offering a climate-conscious alternative to internal combustion.
