2023 Porsche 718 Spyder

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2023 718 Spyder.

Transmission Automatic (AM-S7)

The 2023 Porsche 718 Spyder arrives with a seven-speed automatic (AM-S7) and EPA ratings of 18 city, 24 highway, and 20 combined mpg, positioning it as the latest iteration of the mid-engine roadster line. Its early reliability footprint is notably thin, with just one owner-reported complaint logged across the model year and that single issue centered on service brakes rather than powertrain or structural concerns. Zero recalls have been issued to date, suggesting the 2023 edition enters the model's history with a clean slate that reinforces the platform's established durability.
