The month of March sees Porsche Singapore’s activations come to fruition as Porsche Studio Singapore opens its doors. First off, Porsche Singapore unveils a new studio space. Fans can see the iconic models, groundbreaking concepts and visionary designs up close at this opening. The Porsche Vision Gran Turismo Vexx is then brought to life at Vortex Jewel Changi Airport. Third, the exclusive Porsche Vision Renndienst “Race Service” concept makes its first appearance in Asia at Singapore’s Porsche Studio and finally, Porsche Studio Singapore is transformed to feature special exhibits from artist Cyril Kongo and Porsche Lifestyle.
Vision Gran Turismo Art Car Takes Centre Stage at Jewel
Porsche Vision Gran Turismo Vexx Concept Car debuts in March. The design masterpiece was created in collaboration by multidisciplinary artist Vexx. It will be unveiled at Jewel Changi Airport at the Vortex Water Fountain.
Making the jump from the digital world to reality, The Vision Gran Turismo features future-oriented versions of familiar Porsche design elements as seen on the “Gran Turismo” game series. The concept car exhibits the brand’s signature proportions with an especially sporty height-to-width ratio, an extremely low-set bonnet and pronounced wings. The lights in the particularly purist front and the integrated air intakes create a visual link to the design language of the Taycan – a nod to the car’s purely electric drive. The rear is adorned with a markedly narrow light strip – a further development of the light signature that is familiar from the 911 and Taycan models.
Vision Renndienst Porsche Concept Arrives at Porsche Studio Singapore
Hailing from Germany, the revolutionary Porsche Vision “Renndienst” or “Race Service” Porsche concept car will make its maiden voyage outside Europe, making its regional debut at the new Porsche Studio Singapore.
Boasting a futuristic design language and an interior that redefines luxury and sportiness, the Vision “Renndienst” is Porsche’s exploration of a family-friendly shuttle. The driver of the Porsche Vision “Renndienst” sits in a central lounge chair for a sporty driving experience, while also giving the rear passengers a clear view to the front. For space-saving reasons, the all-electric drive system is also housed in the underbody.
Cyril Kongo, Porsche Lifestyle and Special Exhibits
The Porsche Lifestyle Shop on the ground floor transforms to feature the latest “Turbo” line of apparel, inspired by the first prototype 911 “Turbo #1” gifted by the late Ferry Porsche to his sister, Louise Piëch. Alongside this collection is a motorsport-themed ‘pit lane’ featuring the latest “Fanwear” apparel collection from Porsche Motorsport – complete with full-length wall graphics resembling a tire change in motion when viewed from outside the studio.
A special Porsche 991.2 GT3 R is a vivid art car showcase created by French-Vietnamese Cyril Kongo. The racecar competed in the Porsche Sprint Challenge China & Macau Grand Prix before being purchased by a Singapore private collector. Inspired by Kongo’s unique style, the owner handed the car over as a blank canvas – and Kongo’s signature graffiti style ensued.
This list of exhilarating events and activations happening throughout March 2024 are more than just frivolous brand fodder, they are specially curated concepts designed to branch into Singapore’s luxury automotive market, presenting signature artistic flair to meet local and regional consumer tastes.
