The face-lifted Porsche Boxster mid-engine convertible just debuted at the Los Angeles Auto Show last November, and now we have pictures of the new Boxster that was spied cold weather testing in Northern Europe. The spy pictures reveal a new curvaceous body at the rear end and slightly altered proportions over the current one that it is set to replace, with a hint at the car’s new LED daytime lights. The front bumper seems to touch closer to the ground, and changes in the side panels and sills seem to be covered in tape. It retains the perforated brake disks of the current model and comes with a new aerodynamic package of front air intake mechanism. It is totally revamped, blending style elements from the under-production next-generation 911 due to hit the roads in 2011 and the brand new Panamera. Porsche Boxster 2012 (Gear 1).

After the Volkswagen takeover of the luxury sports carmaker, Porsche is under great pressure from European Union lawmakers to reduce CO2 emissions. The current rulebook says an automaker with a volume less than 300,000 units per year (which Porsche meets) needs to reduce its fleet emissions by only 25 percent by 2012 over 2006 levels. For bigger automakers, the rules are more stringent, and they have to keep the CO2 emissions below 120 g/km by the end of 2012. Boxster resources hint that the third generation 2012 Boxster will be revved with a turbocharged 4-cylinder to beat CO2 emissions to about 180 g/km even though a low-emissions Boxster is not enough to meet requirements on its own. Boxster volumes are likely to go above 15,000 units per year, which is a small figure even for a boutique ramp like Porsche. The real changes will be revealed in the car’s performance figures that is likely to be more efficient even though it is too early to comment on that right now. It looks to retain many features from the current model with minimal improvements which includes manual and PDK twin-clutch gearboxes. It weighs less than the current model.
