The 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster has been modified to give it more power and thrills. Despite the car’s sporty heritage, Porsche has gone ahead and added features such as dual-zone climate control among other features. The 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster still offers the same sporty performance as all its previous models have done.
The 2021 Aston Martin Vantage on the other hand offers the thrill of a sports car in a beautiful package. Buyers can choose the coupe version or convertible. Whatever the choice, the 2021 Vantage is an incredible car with a lot to offer. Let us see how these two vehicles compare to each other.
Design & Style
The 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster is superbly designed and follows Porsche’s styling cues. The interior is beautiful and the engineers at Porsche ensured that everything is intuitively placed where you would expect it to be. There is plenty of space for luggage and the cabin is roomy.
The 2021 Vantage on the other hand is stylish as has all the sporty curves that one would expect on such a car. While the interior is equally well designed, there is little leg room and 2021 Vantage has very few cubicles where one can store things. Still, most people driving this car will not worry too much about coffee holders.
Technology & Safety
The 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster comes with a variety of tech and safety features as standard with much more available as options. These include Apple CarPlay which comes as standard as well as a Wi-Fi hotspot. Other options that are available as options include satellite navigation and more. The 2021 Aston Martin Vantage on the other hand comes with an infotainment system that is controlled by an 8-inch display. Buyers can opt to upgrade the audio system as the standard one is not very good.
Performance
The Porsche 718 Boxster features a choice of 2-liter, 2.5-liter, and 4-liter turbocharged engines. While all variants offer superb driving dynamics, the 4-liter version is for driving enthusiasts looking for a car that can tear up the track. Handling is great and the 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster corners easily as one would expect in a sports car. The 2021 Vantage is powered by a 4-liter V8 engine that turns out an incredible 500hp. This makes the 2021 Vantage a very fast car. Ride quality is not anywhere near that of the 718 Boxster with the Vantage having very poor noise insulation.
The Bottom Line
While these two are incredible sports cars, the 2021 Porsche 718 Boxster edges out the 2021 Aston Martin Vantage in a number of important areas. These include ride quality, cabin space, and tech. For this reason, it is clear that the Porsche is the better of the two vehicles.
