The 718 Spyder RS is Porsche's latest gasoline-powered vehicle in its 718 mid-engine line-up. Very similar to its 718 RS sibling, the GT4 RS, the Spyder RS also features a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six engine with 493 horsepower coupled to Porsche's 78-speed dual-clutch transmission (PDK). However, distinct from its track-focused sibling, the Spyder RS is designed for the ultimate open-top road driving experience, offering an unmatched combination of daily drivability and visceral performance. Highlighted as a pure driver's car by Porsche's Andreas Preuninger, it prioritizes the joy of driving and open-road freedom above all.
