The next generation of Porsche Boxster will feature a 4-cylinder engine for the first time. According to Insider sources, the entry level Porsche Boxster expected in 2011 will have a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with just over 200 bhp on tap.

The details are still scarce but this would definitely be the most economical Porsche ever.

Currently the smallest engine in the Porsche line up comes in the form of Boxster and Cayman, both with a 2.7 Litre engine which emits 222g/km of CO2.

The next generation Boxster will offer significant weight reduction over the current models so as to not hurt the performance and handling much.
