The 368 kW (500 PS, 718 Cayman GT4 RS: Fuel consumption* combined (WLTP) 13.2 l/100 km, CO₂ emissions* combined (WLTP) 299 g/km) GT4 RS with the Manthey Kit completed a lap at the Nordschleife circuit at the Nürburgring in 7:03.121 minutes. This makes it exactly 6.179 seconds faster than the 718 Cayman GT4 RS without the upgrade kit. The modifications focus on aerodynamics and chassis components. Pads designed for the track are available as an option for the powerful braking system.

The new kit was developed in Meuspath especially for track days and in close collaboration between engineers at Porsche Motorsport and the Nordschleife specialists at Manthey. The road-legal components can be fitted aftermarket and will be sold by Porsche Centres worldwide.
