If there’s one rule of the Goodwood Festival of Speed’s hillclimb, it’s don’t crash. Occasionally, the 1.16-mile run through the Duke of Richmond’s driveway will claim a victim – but usually, it’s through some of the course’s surprisingly gruelling corners, particularly Molcombe. Rarely, though, does it claim a car from the start line.

Ford's Capri, once associated with the Mustang, is now back as an electric crossover under Volkswagen influence.

Porsche production manager Albrecht Reimold tells Automobilewoche that the 718 lineup, comprised of the Boxster and Cayman, will end production in 2025. Porsche has already been forced to retire the 718 twins in Europe due to more stringent cybersecurity regulations (and the Macan along with it). More stringent emissions requirements across the pond would have done the pair in at some point as it is. The 718’s electric replacement is underway, and while Reimold didn’t share further details on the upcoming models, it’s hard to imagine Porsche will leave much of a gap between the end of 718 production and the next model’s introduction.
