After three months of traveling on the roads of China – Mongolia, recently, a tycoon from Hai Phong along with his “beloved” Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 officially returned to Vietnam.
The Porsche of Hai Phong tycoon was brought back to the country since August. This is the first genuine 911 Dakar car in Vietnam and one of 2,500 cars produced worldwide.
This car has the sequence number 1904. This number coincides with the owner’s date of birth.
Just 5 days after receiving the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 sports car worth over 16 billion VND, the Hai Phong tycoon, along with his brothers, took three cars: Porsche 911 Dakar 2023, Toyota Land Cruiser LC300, Ford Ranger Raptor on a journey of tens of thousands of kilometers from Vietnam to China, to the Gobi Desert. This offroad supercar has conquered many roads, from deserts to snow roads, mountain climbing and even water crossings.
After months of traveling around, on the evening of November 30, the convoy of cars of the Hai Phong tycoon officially returned to Vietnam through the Tay Trang International Border Gate in Dien Bien district, Dien Bien province.
With this journey, the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 has traveled about 35,000 km.
The Porsche 911 Dakar is developed based on the platform of the 911 Carrera standard but has been upgraded to be able to move in different terrains. Porsche has adjusted the suspension system on the car, raised the ground clearance of the car by an additional 80 mm compared to the standard 911 versions, reaching 200 mm.
When activating the Off-road High Level mode, the ground clearance of the car will increase by an additional 30 mm. This gives this model a ground clearance as well as operational angles in rough terrains that are no less than ordinary SUVs, helping the car overcome high speed bumps, rumble strips without worrying about scraping. This is what has helped the Hai Phong tycoon complete the transcontinental journey through difficult terrains.
This car has many personalized details according to the owner such as: signature on the door sill, additional anti-rollover frame, roof rack, daytime LED lighting roof rack, and some other accessories for offroad journeys.
Providing power for the Porsche 911 Dakar is a 3.0L 6-cylinder boxer engine with 473 horsepower and 570 Nm of torque, coupled with an 8-speed PDK automatic gearbox and AWD. With this power, the car can accelerate to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 240 km/h.
