Porsche_US 718_2018-GTS

620 corners, 59 bridges along 52 miles of Maui coastline. A place seemingly made for two sports cars that have in their hearts an insatiable desire for acceleration. And simply can’t wait to feel the tarmac beneath them.

The new 718 GTS models are never satisfied. They always crave more. More heart pounding from the start. More corners per mile. And more adrenaline with every meter. With an uprated midmounted engine and a chassis unfazed by any hairpin turn. Their power follows an upward path, their design looks forwards: with sharpened forms, honed lines, exquisite materials. The new 718 GTS models also display a clear-cut attitude: baring their teeth, proving their bite. And never losing their hunger. Before the start, enjoy the view once more – of breath-taking landscapes, challenging sections of road and a design that even when stationary sets the heart pounding.

The new 718 GTS models are the embodiment of forward thrust – even when stationary. Thanks to a sharpened design language and accents in black. The rear is clearly contoured and looks wide and imposing due to the rear apron and the centrally positioned sport exhaust tailpipes in black. The LED taillights are tinted, the model logo is also finished in black.

The large air intakes help to ensure an optimum supply of air. And they also make the front look even wider and more imposing. This impression is reinforced by the tinted front turn signal lenses, the front spoiler and the outer airblades in black. The outlook is bright thanks to the Bi-Xenon™ headlights. Optional LED headlights including Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus) offer excellent security combined with a sporty design. 20-inch Carrera S wheels with a dynamic 10-spoke design help to ensure solid roadholding. They are – typical of a GTS – finished in satin black. A selection of other 20-inch wheels is available from our range of personalization options.

The interior integrates the driver perfectly into the vehicle. All the important information you need is directly within view. Alcantara®, the proven motorsport material, ensures a good grip. In the new 718 GTS models, it is used primarily for surfaces within close reach: such as on the steering wheel rim and gear lever/selector. Sport Seats Plus help to create the seating sensation typical of a sports car. The special part? The combination of leather and Alcantara® and a striking stitch pattern. The seat centers are in Alcantara® and the headrests are embroidered with ‘GTS’ logos.

GTS interior package. The optionally available GTS interior package makes the new 718 GTS models even more visually succinct and sporty. More succinct, thanks to the impression created by the accent colors of Carmine Red or Chalk in the interior. More sporty, thanks to extensive items in Alcantara® combined with the interior scheme of black leather and decorative trims in carbon fiber.

Banked turns, chicanes, hairpins. Places in which to pursue centrifugal forces. To feel the wind. And the perfect opportunity to experience increased performance.
