Porsche has chosen Singapore as the location for its 11th Porsche Experience Centre (PEC) worldwide. It will be the world’s first PEC designed from the ground up to cater to the excitement of both local and regional Porsche customers and fans. The new PEC Singapore, slated for operation in 2027, aims to inject more energy into the future Changi precinct.

Following the World Premiere of the new Macan at the Gardens by the Bay, Porsche has once again brought Singapore into the global spotlight by announcing the construction of the 11th Porsche Experience Centre (PEC) worldwide in the city-state.

Located strategically just 20 minutes away from Changi Airport, one of the world’s busiest aviation hubs, and near the upcoming Aviation Park MRT station along the planned Cross Island Line, the new PEC Singapore is poised to enhance the vibrancy of the Changi Precinct. It will offer an array of exciting activities for families and dynamic experiences for car enthusiasts both locally and across the Southeast Asian region.

At the core of the upcoming PEC Singapore is a dynamic handling track spanning over two kilometers, providing an ideal setting to showcase the capabilities of Porsche’s two- and four-door sports cars. The facility will also boast a fully-integrated, high-capacity Aftersales facility—a feature unprecedented in any other PEC worldwide.

In alignment with Porsche’s global commitment to achieve a net carbon-neutral value chain for its newly-produced vehicles by 2030, and in accordance with Singapore Green Plan 2030 aimed at promoting sustainable development, the PEC Singapore fleet will prominently feature a significant number of electric vehicles (EVs), offering environmentally conscious yet thrilling driving experiences.

The upcoming PEC Singapore is poised to offer an extensive range of experiences, from high-octane on-track driving sessions to family-friendly activities. These include themed exhibitions, rotating displays of cars from the Porsche Museum archives, immersive racing simulators, and diverse dining options, catering to a broad spectrum of enthusiasts and interests, promising an unforgettable visit for all.
