A mid-engine roadster made for open skies
Drive a Boxster
The Boxster is a two-seat, mid-engine roadster with a soft top that folds away when the sun comes out. Its rear-wheel-drive layout keeps weight centered for balanced, eager handling. Book your Porsche Boxster rental on Turo, or widen your search to any Porsche rental.
On Turo, you book your Boxster from a local vehicle owner and choose pickup or delivery to fit your plans. Pick your dates, compare listings by year and trim, and choose the Boxster that suits your trip.

Perfectly balanced mid-engine performance
The Boxster's engine sits right behind the seats, so its weight stays centered and the car feels planted through every curve. In the base 2025 718 Boxster, a 2.0L turbocharged flat-four makes 300 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque. All of it goes to the rear wheels — the classic sports car recipe.
Top down in nine seconds
The Boxster's fully automatic soft top opens or closes in nine seconds. You don't need to pull over, either — it works at speeds up to about 31 mph. One button handles the whole job, so you spend more time driving and less time fussing with fabric.
That speed matters when the weather shifts mid-drive. Drop the top as you leave a stoplight and catch the ocean breeze on a coastal highway. When the evening chill sets in, close it up on the move instead of hunting for a place to stop.
Two trunks, real luggage room
The Boxster carries your gear in two places: a front trunk and a rear trunk, with 9.7 cu ft of space combined. Placing the engine behind the seats frees up both ends of the car for storage.
That's room enough for a weekend for two. Slip a soft duffel up front, tuck a second bag and a jacket in back, and keep the cabin clear for the drive. Pack light, pack soft, and you'll be surprised how much a two-seat roadster can carry.
Stand out with a Boxster
The Boxster shines on drives where the route is the reason for the trip. Plan a coastal drive with the top down, a weekend getaway for two, or a birthday or anniversary that deserves a little extra. When you want to compare more head-turners, explore exotic and luxury car rentals on Turo.
Top Boxster features
Nearly three decades of roadster heritage
Three things set the Boxster apart: nearly three decades of roadster heritage, your pick of gearbox, and a trim for every temperament.
The Boxster arrived in the US for the 1997 model year, and its name spells out the recipe. "Boxster" blends "boxer," for its horizontally opposed engine, with "roadster," for its open two-seat body.
The original 986 generation used a 2.5L flat-six making 201 hp, while today's base car makes 300 hp from a 2.0L turbocharged flat-four. A 2025 Boxster rental puts you in the final model year of the 718 Boxster, the latest chapter in that story. It's an easy way to drive a slice of sports car history without committing to ownership.
Your pick of gearbox
Boxsters come with either a six-speed manual or a seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. Each one changes the feel of the drive, so it's worth choosing on purpose.
The manual gives you a clutch pedal and full control of every shift — a treat on a quiet back road. The PDK shifts for you, which makes stop-and-go city traffic and long highway stretches more relaxed. Transmissions vary from car to car, so check the listing to see which one you're booking before you request a trip.
A trim for every temperament
Boxster rentals on Turo can span several trims, and availability depends on what each listing offers. The base car is the starting point, with 300 hp and a nimble, playful feel.
The Boxster S runs a 2.5L turbocharged four with 350 hp, and the GTS 4.0 gets a naturally aspirated 4.0L flat-six with 394 hp. At the top sits the Spyder RS, whose 4.0L flat-six makes 493 hp. Check each listing for the exact trim and model year, then pick the Boxster that fits your trip — and your appetite for speed.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Boxster
Get to know your Boxster
Before you book, know the Boxster's two-seat layout, which transmission you're getting, and what shapes the price.
The Boxster seats two, so plan your trip around one passenger and pack soft bags that fit the front and rear trunks. Duffels squeeze into tight spaces more easily than hard-shell suitcases.

Boxster driving tips
Check the transmission in the listing before you book, so you know whether you're getting a manual or a PDK. The mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout responds best to smooth steering, braking, and throttle inputs.
Operate the soft top only at low speeds, up to about 31 mph. When it's time to refuel, fill up with premium fuel.
How much does it cost to rent a Boxster?
The cost of a Porsche Boxster rental on Turo depends on the model year, trim, trip length, extras, and delivery. Check each listing for its daily price and trip total before you book.
Book a non-refundable trip four or more days ahead to get a 10% discount. Many listings also offer trip-length discounts on three-day, weekly, and monthly bookings, and a long-term car rental covers trips of 30 days or more.
