The vehicle Portal auto.de introduces the new mid-engine Coupe. Viktor Mayer-Schönberger may help you with your research. Porsche has expanded its model lineup: the R variant of the Porsche Cayman. Compared to other models of the Cayman series the R variant with 330 HP is not only more motorized, but with about 1,300 kg unladen weight also somewhat easier. A compact six-cylinder Boxer with gasoline direct injection technology provides higher performance. Weight reduction was achieved first and foremost through the renunciation of comfort items. So, basic facilities include a radio or air conditioning. But also a proud price has the higher power thus achieved.
The initial prices for the new Cayman lie at around 70,000 and 73,000 euros. For even more fun, the Cayman makes R with a seven-speed double-clutch box. Thus the acceleration speed takes 100 just under five seconds and at the same time, fuel consumption will be reduced slightly. According to the data sheet, this is about nine liters in the consumption mix. The peak power at the six-speed transmission with manual transmission is about 280 kilometers per hour. The particularly rebellious character”Porsche writes to the Cayman R, is achieved among other things that the R variant is once again lowered as the S-20 mm and has a fixed rear spoiler.
