2017款保时捷718 Cayman在斯图加特Zuffenhausen工厂投产，这也是这家德国运动车品牌的精神家园。与2012年发布编号981的老款车相比，编号982C的新款车型搭载了动力更强劲引擎。比如，非S版不再搭载2.7升水平对置六缸自然进气引擎，而是换装了2.0升四缸涡轮水平对置引擎。尽管排量缩小，但功率提升了25公制马力，扭矩增加66磅-英尺（约合90马力）。虽然这台四缸涡轮引擎转速没有六缸引擎快，但它的有效转速范围更广（1950-4500转/分），而六缸引擎为4500-6500转/分。而718 Cayman S搭载一台2.5升四缸引擎而非3.4升自然进气引擎，输出功率为350马力，扭矩420牛米。当该车搭配七速PDK变速器并选择Sport Chrono套装后，车辆百公里加速时间仅需4.2秒，最高时速285公里。

 

2017 Porsche 718 Cayman Goes Into Production

The Porsche 718 Cayman entered production at Zuffenhausen in Stuttgart, the spiritual stomping ground of the German sports car brand.

 

Compared to the pre-facelift Cayman introduced under the 981 code in 2012, the 982C code 718 Cayman makes use of a more powerful engine. The non-S model, for example, gave up its naturally aspirated 2.7-liter flat-6 in exchange for a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer. Despite the difference in displacement, the force-fed unit produces 25 metric horsepower and 66 lb-ft over the six.

 

Although the turbo flat-4 doesn’t rev as hard or sound as good as the six-cylinder engine, its torque is delivered across a wider rev range (1,950 – 4,500 rpm compared to 4,500 – 6,500 rpm). The 718 Cayman S, on the other hand, makes do with a 2.5-liter four-banger instead of the bygone N/A 3.4-liter. Total output stands at 350 PS (345 HP) and 420 Nm (310 lb-ft).

 

When the 2017 Porsche Cayman S is equipped with a 7-speed PDK transmission and the optional Sport Chrono Package, the two-door sports car is able to hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in 4.2 seconds. If you’re brave enough to push it to the max, the speedo needle will grind to a halt near the 177 mph (285 km/h) mark.
