A few days ago, a set of Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 ePerformance test cars was exposed. The new car inherits the environmental protection concept and electrical architecture of the Mission R concept car, and can charge the battery from 5% to 80% in 15 minutes. The new car will be unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in June this year, and its production version will be launched around 2025.
The test car uses the 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport racing chassis, and the motor and battery pack are from last year’s Mission R concept car, which means that the new car’s performance in qualifying mode The maximum output power is 735 kilowatts, and it can provide a stable power output of 450 kilowatts during a 30-minute Carrera Cup match.
Porsche conducted a performance analysis on it, and the results showed that the lap time and top speed of this motor are almost the same as those of the 911 GT3 Cup. The dual-motor 718 Cayman GT4 ePerformance uses a 900-volt electrical architecture that can charge the battery from 5% to 80% in 15 minutes. Even though it's based on the 718 Cayman, the electric race car still required development of about 6,000 parts.
This electric racing car uses 18-inch Michelin racing tires made of renewable materials. In addition, its body uses natural fiber composite materials, continuing the environmental protection concept of the Mission R concept car. Porsche even uses recycled carbon fiber to show that even a race car can be designed with sustainability in mind.
In addition, the 718 Cayman GT4 RS is not the last fuel-powered 718. Porsche is designing a comparable Boxster Spyder RS.
