Doha: The Porsche World Roadshow was back in Doha with its full line up of car models. Porsche Centre Doha, Al Boraq Automobiles Co WLL, organised the 10-day event at the Losail International Circuit.
The show attracted around 400 exclusive guests who had the chance to experience the new Porsche technologies embedded in the latest models. With professional instructors from Europe and the United Sates, and local sales representatives on site, Porsche enthusiasts had all their questions answered and enjoyed professional training on mastering driving techniques in different sections, such as off-road, braking, handling and slalom.
Participants were divided into groups which allowed them to experience driving the complete range of high-performance sports cars and Porsche s successful SUV, the Cayenne. In addition to giving the drivers a unique experience of what the Porsche brand has to offer, the Porsche World Roadshow is all about safety and fun.
The new generation of Porsche models tested on track included the iconic 911 featuring Porsche's latest technology in Direct Fuel Injection engines and PDK Porsche Doppelkupplung (double-clutch gear box). Another highlight was the all new Porsche Panamera.
The immense response that the Porsche World Roadshow received for the second time in a row highlights the strong local interest in the Porsche brand, said Salman Jassem Al Darwish, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Porsche Centre Doha.
