A new report from British publication Car says Porsche is going turbocharged with the refreshed Boxster and Cayman due sometime next year.

 

All engines will be of the flat-four variety ranging from 2.0L to 2.5L. Here is how the engine lineup will look,

  • Boxster/Cayman: 2.0L turbocharged flat-four producing 240 HP
  • Boxster S/Cayman S: 2.5L turbocharged flat-four producing 300 HP
  • Boxster GTS/Cayman GTS: 2.5L turbocharged flat-four producing 370 HP


The report goes on to say that the engine will use a single turbocharger and possibly have an 'e-boost' electric system to work while the turbo spools up.

240 is not much horsepower, even in a small car like this.  But I guess the Boxter often had a weak base model, I think the first ones only had like 210 hp back around year 2000.    But I guess this gives people more reason to pay for a 911.
