Porsche 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 Fuel Consumption

[@bobjones2233]

Thanks for the videos. Super98 in Germany looks to be Super93 in most of the US. From the conversion rate on google it seems you're getting 29.77 mpg which is surprisingly good.

Simply turn off the auto stop/start on the centre console and the cylinder deactivation will turn off with it.

I broke in my GTS 4.0 and got 400 miles on one tank 15 gallons. But can get 30mpg on freeway and about 23 mpg during spirited driving.

Just so you know - I was here 😏

The cylinder deactivation is only present when driving in normal mode right? When in Sport or Sport+, this feature is disabled in my opinion.

I believe you’re right, Wizz Pet

Hello thank you for this video and consumption info. very useful info for people like me, who are thinking to buy the GTS4.0 Good to hear that this engine has low average during normal driving. Pls continue to post yr experience with yr new car. I subscribed to yr channel. question: believe you are from Germany ? If yes, the car has the exhaust filter. What is yr opinion on the engine sound ? I hear that some are disappointed ? Rgs from Belgium

Hi Cayman 981, yes- I live in Germany- I personally am happy with the exhaust sound and probably won’t spend the 3 grand or so on a system with smaller or no backboxes. I‘d need to hear the latter live (ie. not just on video) to really judge the difference. The GT4 RS sounds better/more raw in my view, but it does also cost nearly twice as much and also has the GT3 engine, which revs ~1k higher

[@cayman9815]

@@theenglishdaniel4379 thanks for yr opinion reading often that many install a tool to have the exhaust valves also open on low revs do you consider?

[@theenglishdaniel4379]

I wouldn’t consider this- I don’t tend towards software flashing, though have never done it. More likely to do something like that on my Ford first, if at all. I would like to hear the Akrapovic exhaust unit for the 718 GTS 4.0 live- maybe someone reading this has it. Belgium is not far away- do you know of any Cayman/718 meet ups in the region?

@@theenglishdaniel4379 I had same problem with my Cayman981 on which I wanted to install Akrapovic also…. Could not find any dealer to hear it on a car …

Which year is your car from? Do you have the 2.5 litre?
