2 Answers
The Porsche 718 does not have four seats; it is a 2-door, 2-seater soft-top convertible sports car. Taking the 2021 Porsche 718 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4379mm, width 1801mm, height 1272mm, with a wheelbase of 2475mm and a body weight of 1365kg. The 2021 Porsche 718 features MacPherson independent suspension both in the front and rear. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 366PS, a maximum torque of 430Nm, and a maximum power of 269kW, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've always been a sports car enthusiast and have driven the Porsche 718 for several years—it's a true driver's machine. The entire 718 series, including the Cayman and Boxster, features a classic two-seat design with no four-seat version. Porsche engineers aimed to keep the body lightweight to enhance handling and acceleration performance, as adding seats would increase weight and compromise cornering performance. While the 911 has rear seats, the 718 focuses on the driver's experience, making it the benchmark for entry-level sports cars. If you crave speed, the 718 is the best choice; but if you need to carry more passengers, the Macan SUV is more practical. Take it for a test drive—the exhilarating acceleration and road feedback will get you hooked. Remember, customization options don’t include adding seats, so consider your needs carefully before buying.
