Are there safety recalls on the 2018 Porsche boxster?

NHTSA lists no safety-recall campaigns for the 2018 Porsche boxster model year. That covers the model year, not this individual car: to see whether a specific vehicle still needs a recall repair, check its VIN on NHTSA.gov or ask a franchised dealer. Recall repairs are done at no charge.

What fuel economy does the 2018 Porsche boxster get?

The 2018 Porsche boxster has U.S. EPA estimates of 24–25 mpg combined, depending on engine and trim (2 versions).
