The BMW lacks the power-folding soft top in the Boxster, however, plus the former has smaller space in the rear room and headroom that compromises space for taller passengers as well.

The 2018 BMW 2 Series has been equipped with keyless-entry ignition plus is also packed with technology features worth taking note of. The 6.5-inch touchscreen display complements its iDrive control for its infotainment system. Add to that, it also offers Connected Drive Telematics, a safety feature that BMW carries.

For the 2018 Porsche 718 Boxster, you will get to enjoy safety and technology features even with its basic trim level. It has USB ports, a Bluetooth interface, and an audio system that is highly technical yet very easy to comprehend with. The power and heated seats as well as the climate control function are both welcome additions to this model.

Performance

When it comes to engine performance, the 2018 718 Boxster is a clear winner. While both cars have been designed to operate with the help of a four-cylinder, 2.0-liter engine under the hood, there is a difference in their maximum total output. The Boxster produces a maximum run of 280lb-ft of torque and 300 horsepower while the BMW 2 Series only yields up to 258lb-ft of toque and 248 horsepower.
