Recently, a limited edition Porsche 911 Dakar sports car arrived in Vietnam and caught the attention of car enthusiasts. The car has made quite a journey, traveling from the South to the North of Vietnam, then to China and even Mongolia, before finally arriving in Saigon after more than 3 months on the road.
The images shared by Porsche Vietnam’s dealer show that the car arrived at the official dealer covered in mud. The owner decided to leave it dirty for a day, as a way to remember the 3-month journey conquering the roads in China and Mongolia, before taking it for a clean wash.
Many netizens have expressed admiration for the adventurous and passionate driving of Hanoi’s tycoon. It is worth mentioning that shortly after receiving the Porsche 911 Dakar from the dealer, the owner drove straight to Danang, waited for a week, and then embarked on the journey to China, even crossing the Gobi Desert. It is highly likely that this is one of the Porsche 911 Dakar cars in the world with the fastest-growing odometer.
But the owner’s plans don’t stop there. He also plans to participate in a journey from Saigon to Europe, with the final stop being the Porsche factory. The total distance covered will be over 65,000 km.
The official selling price of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 is announced to be 15.29 billion VND. However, the first car comes with additional accessories requested by the owner, which increases the price to over 16 billion VND, and the final price reaches nearly 18 billion VND.
The Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 is equipped with a key feature that helped the Hanoi-based businessman easily drive from Vietnam to the Gobi Desert: ground clearance that is more than 50 mm higher than the standard car. Additionally, the car can be raised an additional 30 mm in High Level mode, which is activated through a knob on the steering wheel. This mode allows the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 to navigate high-speed bumps and speed bumps without worrying about hitting the underbody.
The “heart” of the Porsche 911 Dakar 2023 is a 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine, producing a maximum power of 473 horsepower and a maximum torque of 570 Nm. It is paired with an 8-speed PDK automatic transmission, an all-wheel drive system, and a rear-wheel steering system. As a result, this sports car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds and has a limited top speed of 240 km/h.
