The 2.7 liter Boxster engine now produces 245 bhp, which is a jump of 5 bhp from earlier models. The cost of the power is fuel consumption. The car now uses 9.3L/100km which is 0.3L worse than it used to be. The car goes 0 to 100km/h in 6.1 seconds and tops out at 260 km/h when equipped with the optional 6 speed gearbox.

The Boxster S engine has bulked up from 3.2L to 3.4L and added 15 bhp to reach a new total of 295 bhp. O to 100 km/h now takes 5.4 seconds, which is 0.1 seconds better. Top speed is 272 km/h and fuel consumption in 10.6L/100km.
