What appears to be a Porsche 718 Boxster electric prototype was spotted testing ahead of the unveiling of the next generation of the sports car.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For those unfamiliar with Porsche\u2019s lineup, the 718 Cayman and Boxster are the cheaper sports cars in the automaker\u2019s lineup, starting at around $60,000.<\/p>\n

The current generation of 718 was introduced in 2016, and Porsche is due to move to the next generation in 2025.<\/p>\n

With Porsche\u2019s aggressive electrification plans, it seemed likely that the automaker would decide to make the next generation all-electric.<\/p>\n

However, back in 2019, then Porsche CEO Oliver Blume had concerns about making the smaller sports car, which is known to be light, electric due to how the weight of the battery would affect driving performance.<\/p>\n

But after a few years of debating it<\/a>, Porsche finally confirmed that the next generation will have all-electric versions.<\/p>\n

Now a prototype of an electric Porsche 218 Boxster has been spotted testing in Germany:<\/p>\n
