The Porsche 718 Spyder RS represents the pinnacle of Porsche's mid-engine roadster philosophy. Its naturally aspirated 4.0-liter six-cylinder boxer engine delivers 500 hp and revs up to 9,000 rpm – an engine derived directly from motorsport. In combination with the 7-speed PDK transmission, the Spyder RS accelerates to 100 km/h in around 3.4 seconds and reaches a top speed of approximately 308 km/h.
In contrast to classic convertibles, the 718 Spyder RS pursues an uncompromising lightweight construction concept. The manually operated fabric soft top saves weight and underlines the purist approach. Numerous components are made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP), and the chassis is largely derived from the 718 Cayman GT4 RS and is consistently designed for precision and feedback.
The aerodynamics are functional and effective: a front spoiler, optimized air ducts, and a striking rear end with integrated diffuser ensure stability at high speeds without losing the classic roadster character. The low-mounted air intakes behind the seats not only improve the intake ducting but also intensify the acoustic experience in the interior—especially with the roof open.
The cockpit is dominated by a motorsport atmosphere. Alcantara, visible carbon fiber, and reduced insulation create a direct connection between driver and machine. Every detail is designed for performance – from the low seating position to the precise steering with immediate feedback.
The Porsche 718 Spyder RS is not a classic luxury roadster, but an uncompromising sports car for enthusiasts. It combines the openness of a convertible with the radicalism of a GT model, thus bringing the era of high-revving naturally aspirated engines in the 718 segment to an emotional close. The Porsche 718 Spyder RS can be rented from Edel & Stark.
