If you are trying to choose between buying a 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster and a 2021 Audi TT, you have come to the right place. Both are amazing cars that feature stylish designs and offer thrilling driving experiences. But, just how do they fare against each other? Let’s take a look.
Design & Style
Undoubtedly, when it comes to the exterior design, both cars offer a sleek and trendy look. However, they greatly differ on the inside. In addition to standard air-conditioning and seating features present in both vehicles, the 718 Boxster comes with multi-zone air-conditioning, cooled front seats, and even a heated steering wheel to bring your comfort to the next level.
Some other exclusive features of the 718 Boxster include remote trunk release and hands-free liftgate – something you will definitely be grateful for the next time you have your hands full of shopping bags.
Technology & Safety
Standard in both vehicles are rear-view cameras, break assist, blind spot monitor, rear parking aid, pressure monitor, cruise control, stability control, traction control, brake ABS system, rollover protection bars, 4-wheel disc brake, passenger and driver front and knee airbag, and front side impact airbags.
It is worth noting that the 718 Boxster comes with additional adaptive cruise control which has the ability to correctly appreciate the speed of the vehicle in front. This significantly expands the continuous operation time of the cruise control function, as automation controls both the acceleration and braking of the vehicle.
Performance
When you look at performance, the TT comes with a 7-Speed S tronic Automatic while 718 Boxster comes with a 6-Speed Manual. This allows the TT to have a more efficient fuel consumption and effortlessly smooth gear shift transitions.
On the flip side, the 718 Boxster comes with a much more powerful engine which can go up to 394 hp @ 7000 rpm, compared to the 228 hp @ 4500 rpm for the TT. Coupled with torque that goes up to 309 ft-lb, this makes the 718 Boxster a dream to drive in if you are going for speed. If you are looking for a powerful engine packed with a punch, 718 Boxster is clearly the better option.
The Bottom Line
Though the TT has a slight edge in fuel consumption and gear shift transitions, in the big picture, Porsche 718 Boxster is the clear victor. It is more comfortable to drive in for both the driver and passenger, has better automation for acceleration and brakes, and is much faster in speed. You can upgrade your 718 Boxster with some astounding optional features and choose between three differently sized engine.
