The 2022 Porsche 718 Boxster and the 2022 Tesla Model S are two very different cars, but how do they compare against each other? Let’s take a look at some of the most important aspects of both cars to see which one comes out on top.
Design & Style
Though both are low, sleek, and aerodynamic; each sports car has the look that helps it stand out from other electric and classic cars on today’s market. The Boxster has a sleeker look compared to the chunkier design of the Model S, but they still maintain elegant appearances that help them blend in with traffic when driving on city streets or highways.
Although both have spacious interiors, the 2022 Porsche 718 Boxster has set itself apart in numerous ways that many consider more aesthetically pleasing than a Porsche. The interior of a Tesla features its controversial holographic display and sleek minimalist dashboard, which can be customized to an owner’s preferences down to the color of each button on a touchscreen computer mounted within easy reach of driver and passenger alike. For safety’s sake, most buttons are still analog switches mounted on panels below, above, or behind each touch screen display as a failsafe mechanism; if something goes wrong with one unit, it is easier to remove than fixing with software updates alone.
Technology & Safety
Both cars offer an array of advanced driver-assistance and safety systems, but which one offers more? Perhaps it’s no surprise that Tesla leads in autonomous driving with their Autopilot system, but other than that, it seems to be a draw between these two cars. They both offer higher levels of standard safety tech than any other car out there—such as automatic emergency braking and lane-keeping assist—but that doesn’t mean they are above reproach.
Performance
The main difference between these two cars is power and acceleration. The engine in a 2022 Porsche 718 Boxster has to pull its entire weight off of a stop, so it will have less pep on takeoff than an electric car with similar performance numbers. A hybrid car’s advantage over a pure electric car is fuel economy in city conditions, which are typically stop-and-go when acceleration doesn’t matter as much since traffic lights play a big part in how fast you get through them. It also depends on whether or not you’re willing to compromise some comfort for environmental impact, and whether or not you want an extended range of travel without needing to charge up your vehicle when doing so isn’t possible.
The Bottom Line
The bottom line is that they’re both great cars. The overall quality of any vehicle coming out in 2022 will be top-notch, and you shouldn’t expect anything less from these two choices. Ultimately, you have to ask yourself what matters most when buying a car — fast acceleration or gorgeous design? From our perspective, it’s a close race, but in reality, the 2022 Porsche 718 Boxster takes the lead. Each person needs to weigh their own needs and desires before deciding — just be sure not to forget about safety!
