Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Has Porsche said anything about the lifecycle of the new 718? If it's a mid-term facelift of the 981, does that mean it will be replaced by a new model in 3 or so years time, or since the changes are pretty major (new engine, body panels etc), is this the start of a full new lifecycle?
I hear the next car will feature a 2 cylinder twin-air engine made by Fiat...
All fule no its gonna be a flat triple..........
The new model won't be out until MY 2021, so the 718 will be sold for 5 instead of the expected 3 years. Reasons are fairly obvious — new engines cost higher development costs than for a regular facelift, sports cars are in low demand compared to SUVs and EVs, the next platform needs a major and very expensive redesign with a carbon fibre monocoque to transition into a viable hybrid/EV, etc. source: http://www.sueddeutsche.de/auto/neue-modelle-im-fa... and I also read about it in Sport Auto.

mollytherocker said: A 2 cylinder 500cc turbo coupled to an electric motor is very possible.... You mean a bit like the i8 - just the odd cylinder less since the Porsche's half the price?

Yea, triples rule....
