About Porsche Boxster/Cayman
The Porsche Boxster and Cayman are mid-engine two-seater sports cars manufactured and marketed by German automobile manufacturer Porsche across four generations—as a two-door, two-seater roadster (Boxster) and a three-door, two-seater fastback coupé (Cayman). The first-generation Boxster was introduced in 1996; the second-generation Boxster and the Cayman arrived in late 2005; and the third generation launched in 2012. From 2016 to 2025, the two models were marketed as the Porsche 718 Boxster and Porsche 718 Cayman. The nameplate Boxster is a portmanteau of boxer, a reference to its flat or boxer engine, and Speedster, a nod to the original Porsche Speedster of the 1950's. The nameplate Cayman is an alternative spelling of caiman, a member of the alligator family. In May 2025, Porsche North America confirmed the rumours that global “production for all current 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman variants, including RS models, is scheduled to end in October of” 2025.
