The new design can be described as <strong>sleek, wide and low<\/strong>. The design is undeniably edgy, sportier and with better-contoured form. <em>The almost geometric air intakes make the front fascia look wider and more aggressive. <\/em>The wheel arches are larger to accommodate <strong>20-inch wheels<\/strong> and the air intakes are much larger as well for better engine cooling system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22983\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2017-porsche-718-boxster-s-the-bright-new-design.jpg\" alt=\"2017 Porsche 718 Boxster S \u2013 The Bright New Design\" srcset=\"http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2017-porsche-718-boxster-s-the-bright-new-design.jpg 600w, http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2017-porsche-718-boxster-s-the-bright-new-design-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The doors are contoured to the sides to bring you a better aerodynamic look and performance. The exterior also features <strong>new side mirrors with v-shaped mirror base<\/strong> for a more dynamic look. The fabric top (hard top optional) of the convertible brings a very typical sports car look that we have come to love on the Boxster<em>. The top is fully automatic and can be closed and opened with just a touch of a button in 9 seconds. <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>slimline taillights<\/strong> with three-dimensional insides are a new addition as well. <em>The four LEC brake lights are added horizontally in the taillights for a better look that is homogenous and beautiful<\/em>. The accent between the two taillights makes the rear of the convertible look even wider and better.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>interior has a very clean and ergonomic design<\/strong>. The dashboard of the 2017 Porsche 718 Boxster S is very striking. The center console is placed in an ascending position to shorten the distance between the driver and the dashboard. Of course, that also means that the distance between the steering wheel and the gear is short as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22987\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sellanycar.com\/cars-related\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/interior-of-2017-porsche-718-boxster-s.jpg\" alt=\"Interior of 2017 Porsche 718 Boxster S\" srcset=\"http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/interior-of-2017-porsche-718-boxster-s.jpg 600w, http:\/\/18.202.220.25\/en\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/interior-of-2017-porsche-718-boxster-s-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The steering wheel in the new 2017 Porsche 718 Boxster S is derived from the 918 Spyder, you will also have the option of a smaller steering wheel with the GT option.
