Spotted: 718 EV Boxster with 85kwh battery capacity + Pirelli P Zero R tires (Nov 11)

[refazi]

I was going to charge my car today at the Valley Fair mall EA station in Santa Clara, CA and the boxster prototype shows up!

It has a NACS port in the back, came at 27% and left at 80% with about 46kwh dispensed, so the car should have about 85kwh capacity.

The car was not loud at all with the fans but it is most likely due to the station load sharing power so it maxed at 190kw

The tires were the Pirelli P Zero R 21" that the Taycan Turbo S have, so expect a lot of power.

Drivers were friendly but could not share any specific details..!

85 kWh capacity, even with a conservative 3.5 mpkWh efficiency still gives almost 300 miles, which is more than enough! Thanks for posting those numbers. It's all still a guess, at this point, but nice to see.

The dates on the car: 06.01.1993 - first boxter concept: https://www.stuttcars.com/porsche-boxster-concept/

There's also a 22-25 something; which I guess are the date for some Porsche event; and we know that embargo lift date is on 24.

Media so far also had access only to boxters.

So I guess this kind of enforces that we're only getting the Boxter announced on 24th.

I zoomed in on the back fender pic and yes, the world needs more sports cars!

Those P Zero Rs have seen some hard times.

You would think it would appear in the LA Auto show given the prototype is in CA and the embargo lift date being right after press day.
