Description
Introduction
The second generation Cayman was unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, The production version was introduced as a 2014 model in the spring of 2013. Available in both the standard trim with a 2. 7-litre engine, and in the S trim with a 3. 4-litre engine. Both versions were available with either a 6-speed manual or a dual-clutch 7-speed PDK transmission.
The 981 features upgrades including a new body, a longer wheelbase, a wider front track, and a redesigned interior that matches the firm’s contemporary 911 models.
The new model gained acclaim in the motoring press as one of the best handling sports cars at any price, due to its-mid engine layout and driving dynamics. The Cayman S benefitted from the same engine and running gear as Porsche’s latest 3. 4-litre version of the 911.
The 981 reflected the new design language from the 991 and 918 and featured revised engine and transmission specifications. The chassis had been revised: it is 40 percent more torsionally rigid, the front track is 40 mm (1. 6 in) wider, the rear track is 18 mm (0. 7 in) wider, and the wheelbase has been extended by 60 mm (2. 4 in).
There was a small weight reduction of up to 35 kg (77 lb) compared to the outgoing 987. The 981 was the first Boxster/ Cayman to use electronically assisted steering, and the parking brake in the car uses an electronic linkage. The instrument cluster features a 4. 6″ TFT color screen in conjunction with various sensors that can display accurate engine temperature, oil temperature and oil pressure. The auto start/ stop system was also incorporated for the first time.
