Chanced upon this news that’s one year old. Looks like our gem of a car is still very much alive and kicking! ?

Anyone has new news about what’s in the pipeline?

I can’t see 718s going EV ... that would have made it lose its soul ... for another ...

I would imagine that the most logical way would be to use EV hybrid. Since the cayman s has such a small turbocharged engine, the EV boost would perfectly fill in the torque gap and completely eliminate turbo lag.

Regarding the sound, IMHO, sound is just a by-product of performance. What's the point of good sound when the car is slow?

I ran across an article in PCA today that the 718 Cayman GT4 will officially be used in the WRC! That is pretty significant in its own right.

Too small for the size of current batteries. That's why the Taycan will be a Panamera sized car.
