Porsche Goes Electric



The Porsche Boxster has gone battery powered.





The electric revolution is continuing to gather momentum at Porsche with the creation of an all-electric plug-in version of the Boxster, called the Boxster E.



Rear and four-wheel-drive variants of the development car, which features a lithium ion battery pack in place of the sports car’s usual petrol-powered straight six, were unveiled at the Michelin Challenge Bibendum, in Berlin.



Weighing in at around 1600kg, but with electric motors capable of delivering the equivalent of 241bhp and 398lb ft of torque, Stuttgart’s volt driven vehicle created a buzz at the annual sustainable mobility event.
