Less than a month after breaking ground at Porsche Experience Centre (PEC) Singapore, Porsche has released the final concept renders of the 14-hectare site, taking advantage of the hubbub surrounding the recent Singapore Grand Prix. These images show some of the facilities that will be afforded to thrill-seeking owners and guests visiting the centre – the first in Southeast Asia, set to open in 2027.
Located to the north of the forthcoming Changi Airport Terminal 5, PEC Singapore will house the prerequisite circuit – in this case, a tight, technical course that will measure over two kilometres long. Zuffenhausen says the track will challenge drivers with a double-S curve that “requires utmost discipline when keeping to the racing line,” as well as a banked corner that will subject them to up to 1.4 lateral Gs.
The highlight, however, is an overarching building that appears to take inspiration from the W Hotel at Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, with cars blasting underneath before getting onto the main straight. This building will house a “podium event plaza” built for Cars & Coffee-style community events, as well as a PEC-first integrated after-sales centre.
Other than the full circuit, PEC Singapore will also house a “dynamic handling area for learning emergency vehicle control” (also known as a skidpan), a drift circle and an even tighter “low-friction handling track.” The completion of the centre should allow Porsche’s regional arms to host drive events there, as an alternative to the usual Sepang International Circuit.
“We are immensely proud that PEC Singapore will mark a milestone for Porsche in the region and set new benchmarks with many unique and world-first features for all its visitors. This development truly reflects the spirit of innovation and passion that defines Porsche, and we are excited to see this vision come to life,” said Marc Beil, senior manager of Porsche Experience at Porsche Asia Pacific (PAP).
