Porsche 718 Boxster EV Imagined Fully Uncovered in CGI

The all-new 2027 Porsche 718 Boxster is being reimagined as a battery-electric model in an unofficial, fully unmasked CGI reveal by digital artist Andrei Avarvarii.

These images are speculative CGI and do not come from Porsche; they represent one artist's interpretation of the Boxster EV's likely styling.

Avarvarii's renderings show a focused evolution of the 718 silhouette, retaining the roadster's low-slung proportions while introducing sleeker four-point LED headlights and an uninterrupted rear light bar. The artist, who publishes under Avarvarii Automotive Artworks, describes the result as "a sharp, focused evolution of the iconic silhouette, preserving its classic low-slung proportions while introducing sleek four-point LED headlights and an uninterrupted rear light bar."

Context within Porsche's EV rollout

The imagined 718 arrives as Porsche expands its electrified lineup that already includes the Taycan, launched in 2019, the second-generation Macan introduced in 2024, and the E4 Porsche Cayenne scheduled to reach markets in early 2026. The Taycan shares family ties with the Audi e-tron GT, while Porsche has said the Macan's second generation shares underpinnings with other Audi models, including the A6 and Q6 e-tron.

Porsche's next moves on architecture are relevant: the E4 Cayenne is identified as the second Porsche model built on the PPE, Premium Platform Electric, and it will be sold alongside the E3 Cayenne. Industry coverage has linked that dual approach to softer-than-expected Macan sales after Porsche moved the model to BEV-only powertrains.

Separately, prototype testing of the 718 Cayman has been frequent. Spy photographers have repeatedly caught the coupe during development, and one recent sighting this month showed the least camouflage yet, indicating the pair of 718 models are advancing through validation even without a confirmed reveal date.

Avarvarii acknowledges that electrifying a cult sports car is controversial and notes recent rumors that suggested the EV project had been halted. Recent reports, however, have suggested Porsche may temper a BEV-only strategy and continue development of internal-combustion models alongside electric variants.

The automaker has not fixed an official public launch for the 718 EVs; several industry sources indicate Porsche may delay a full reveal until early 2027 to assess market demand. For now the Avarvarii renders offer the clearest unofficial look yet at how a 718 Boxster EV might translate Porsche styling cues into an electric roadster.
