Porsche 718 Spyder GT4 RS teased; to be unveiled soon

Porsche has finally released a teaser of upcoming  718 Spyder GT4 RS. The short clip was recently uploaded to the brand’s official Instagram handle.

Like the coupe, the Spyder will use the same 4.0-liter flat-six motor from the 911 GT3. The mid-mounted engine puts out 493 hp and 331 lb-ft of torque and will be mated to a 7-speed PDK. The Spyder will not be offered with a manual transmission.

Similarly, the chassis upgrades will also be carried over to the Spyder. These include a lowered ride height courtesy of Bilstein dampers and stiffer springs all around. The car will also feature stiffer anti-roll bars and 20-inch centre-lock wheels.

The 718 Spyder GT4 RS will be a limited edition model. It is expected to be produced for 1 year. In comparison, the coupe will be built over 2 years, which makes the Spyder more exclusive.
