From Autoweek:
As expected, the Boxster and the Boxster S will receive newly developed turbocharged flat-four engines. The 718 Boxster will be powered by a 2.0-liter mill producing 300 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque from 1,950 rpm to 4,500 rpm, while the 718 Boxster S will use a turbocharged 2.5-liter H4 good for 350 hp and 309 lb-ft of torque, available from 1,900 rpm to 4,500 rpm. That's a gain of 74 lb-ft of torque for the smaller engine, and 43 extra lb-ft for the larger one vs. the current engine. Tested in the European cycle, Porsche also boasts a 14 percent gain in fuel efficiency for the two engines.
Max torque at 1900 - 4500 rpm? This is new for Porsche, eh.
