Cars can still be ordered from stock and existing orders will be fulfilled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The models have been an integral part of the Porsche line-up since 1996 and 2005 respectively, and&nbsp;the fourth-generation models have been in production since 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.autocar.co.uk\/car-news\/new-cars\/testing-ramps-ahead-porsche-cayman-evs-2026-launch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">will be sold exclusively as electric cars<\/a>&nbsp;when they return in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recent speculation that suggested the decision to cease production of the ICE 718s could be reversed has been denied to Autocar by high-ranking Porsche sources.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The speculation followed Porsche\u2019s new stance that it would adopt a more flexible product portfolio to extend the life of pure-combustion and hybrid models until well into the 2030s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has led to the creation of the incoming&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.autocar.co.uk\/car-news\/new-cars\/porsche-confirms-plans-new-ice-powered-suv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ICE Macan replacement<\/a>&nbsp;and update for the Cayenne \u2013 cars that will sit alongside electric namesakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This, however, will not happen for the 718s. Instead, the badge will exclusively adorn EVs based on the&nbsp;Volkswagen Group\u2019s new EV-specific&nbsp;PPE platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While technically unrelated, testing mules (pictured below) confirm the new cars will still be positioned similarly to the existing ICE versions in their size, styling and philosophy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
