Thermal Management The Boxster models feature a new version of thermal management to reduce friction losses that arise during the warm-up phase. Thanks to the selective control strategy and on-demand, gradual activation of the various cooling circuits, the engine and gearbox warm up to normal operating temperature more rapidly. The consequent reduction in friction also contributes to reducing fuel consumption* and CO emissions. During performance 2 driving, thermal management also acts to reduce temperatures so that a high level of performance is maintained. A cross-flow cooling system supplies each engine cylinder uniformly with coolant, which helps to protect the valves against thermal overload and premature wear. Keeping each cylinder cool improves combustion and keeps emissions, fuel consumption, and noise comparatively low. Performance | Engine Exhaust System In the new Boxster models, each cylinder bank has its own stainless steel exhaust tract. Downstream of their respective rear silencer, the tracts converge into a connecting tube and a single (Boxster) or twin (Boxster S) tailpipe. The stereo lambda control circuitry monitors each cylinder bank separately. For each exhaust tract, four corresponding oxygen sensors regulate the composition of the exhaust gas and monitor the performance of the catalytic converters. Having separate tracts means that the exhaust gas can flow more freely. The resulting reduction in pressure loss has a positive impact on power output, torque, and the unmistakable engine sound. Available as an option for the new Boxster models is the sport exhaust system, including Sport tailpipe. It produces an even more resonant Porsche sound. Sport Button Select the Sport mode by pressing the Sport button on the center console. Throttle response becomes even more direct, the rev limiter is adjusted to a harder setting, and engine dynamics are tuned for performance driving. The Auto Start Stop function is also deactivated. Coasting mode is also deactivated automatically. With the optional Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) transmission, the shift points are reconfigured to operate at higher engine speeds. Shift times are reduced and gearshifts become firmer and more immediate, while throttleblip downshifts are accompanied by an emotive engine sound. Auto Start Stop Function This fuel-saving innovation is designed primarily for use in congested traffic. The Auto Start Stop function switches off the engine when you stop, select Neutral, and release the clutch pedal. In cars with Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), it is simply a case of applying and holding the brake. All audio and communication systems remain switched on, as does the airconditioning system. The engine will restart as soon as you operate the clutch or, in cars with PDK, release the brake. The Auto Start Stop function can be deactivated and reactivated using a separate button on the center console. The function may be deactivated automatically under particular circumstances, such as when the Sport button is selected or there is low battery charge. *Note: Please see fuel economy estimates on page 108.
Electrical System Recuperation For enhanced efficiency, the new Boxster models are equipped with intelligent electrical system recuperation. The vehicle battery is recharged by the generator, predominantly under braking. Thanks to this selective recharging, when you require full driving power, the maximum possible output can be directed straight to the road. 1 Boxster tailpipe 2 Boxster S twin tailpipe 3 Sport button 4 Auto Start Stop button 1 2 3 4 28
