Frequently asked questions

Porsche 718 Cayman: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Among the 58 S 2016–2020, the 718 Cayman ranks 56th of 58 in 0–100 km/h (4.6 s, behind the Nissan GT-R 570 R35), 54th of 58 in Top speed (274 km/h, behind the Lamborghini Aventador S), 54th of 58 in Power-to-weight (225 hp/t, behind the Ferrari 812 Superfast).

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

The Nissan GT-R 570 R35 leads in 0–100 km/h (2.7 s vs 4.6 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 718 Cayman vs Nissan GT-R 570 R35 duel for a detailed comparison.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
