The rim of the 360 mm GT sports steering wheel features a black Alcantara cover. The same applies to the central sections of the standard leather seats. Alcantara is also used on the door handles, armrests, steering wheel and gear lever. It offers optimal grip and enhances the sporty appeal of the 718 Spyder.
The shift lever is 2 cm (0.78 inches) shorter than on standard 718 models, offering a particularly direct and crisp feel when changing gears. The standard Sport Seats Plus with raised side bolsters provide a high degree of lateral support. The adaptive Sports Seats Plus with electric 18-way adjustment were available as an optional extra, as were the full-bucket seats. Both also have thorax airbags and visible carbon surfaces.
The headrests are embroidered with the “Spyder” logo. The same logo also graces the black dial of the central rev counter, the markings and needle of which are white. The door panels feature black door pulls. The gear lever of the manual six-speed transmission bears a “718” badge. The decorative panels of the centre console, dashboard and doors are painted in body-colour.
Spyder Classic Interior Package
The Spyder was optionally available with the Classic interior package, evoking memories of historic race cars. This package gives the interior an individual character. It features two-tone leather upholstery in Bordeaux red and black, complemented by extended Alcantara items in black. Alcantara also covers the lid of the storage compartment and the entire door panel. The seat centre panels come in black Alcantara, headrests and side bolsters in Bordeaux red leather. Additional contrasts are provided by decorative trims painted in GT silver metallic. A two-tone roof in red and black was also available in combination with the Spyder Classic interior package.
