The 2019 Porsche 718 Price and Release
Date
In a 2018 comparison test that included the rivals, the The 2019 Porsche 718 placed fifth. Handling also proved to be another The 2019 Porsche 718 weak spot and we found the steering to be numb.
The The 2019 Porsche 718, on the other hand, is a better package, as we noted in a 2017 First Test, thanks to its smooth powertrain and well-calibrated brakes that smoothly transition between regenerative and mechanical braking. However, since it isn’t a plug-in hybrid, the The 2019 Porsche 718 doesn’t have much EV mode range and can only travel around 0.5 miles on electricity.A rear view camera with rear parking sensors is now standard on all models.
The car is the only The 2019 Porsche 718 trim level that can be had with a cool two-tone exterior color scheme. The ride itself was smooth, and road imperfections were barely felt.
