    With everyone turning to cleaner and greener energy resources and transport designs, Porsche has decided to take a step forward too. The car company is considering producing a new Boxster sports version, this time with lower CO2 emissions. Scrapping the previous reports of a four cylinder Boxster, Porsche is considering building these sports cars with a three cylinder engine that will be cleaner and more efficient. According to the director of the Boxster model line, Hans-Jurgen Wohler, a three or four cylinder engine will produce between 180bhp to 200bhp and emit just 180g/km of CO2 which is certainly acceptable. However, the fate of this environment friendly sports car depends on the impact on Porsche’s emission requirements due to change because of Volkswagen’s new ownership. Porsche on the other hand, need to deal with their emissions and reduce it by 25% as compared to that in 2006. Will Porsche come up with a bunch of eco-friendly sports cars in the near future? We wait and watch!
