Porsche Korea announced that it will further solidify its position as a leading sports car brand by showcasing a diverse lineup of vehicles at the 2025 Seoul Mobility Show, which opens on April 4. The exhibition will be held under the concept “Porsche. There is no substitute,” highlighting the brand’s identity and future product strategy.

Porsche’s booth at the Seoul Mobility Show will be divided into two main sections. One will focus on the GTS models, symbolizing the Gran Turismo Sport concept, and the other will showcase the brand’s innovative electric performance through its all-electric vehicle lineup.

The new 911 model will be unveiled for the first time in South Korea at this show. The all-electric SUV Macan Electric, the classic 904 Carrera GTS, and the Formula E racing car 99X Electric will also be on display, offering a rare opportunity to see a wide range of Porsche models not commonly available in South Korea.

Mathias Busse, CEO of Porsche Korea, stated that the company is expanding its product portfolio and investment to enhance brand value in the Korean market further and provide a differentiated experience for Korean customers. He added that Porsche will introduce models that encapsulate its innovative technology and sophisticated design through the Seoul Mobility Show while sharing the brand’s future vision.

Adding to the event’s prestige, Jörg Kerner, Head of the Macan Product Line at Porsche AG, will personally introduce the Macan Electric and hold a press conference.

The iconic Porsche 911, a benchmark in the sports car world since its 1963 debut, continues to evolve. The new 911 Carrera 4 GTS, set to be unveiled at the show, marks a milestone as the first road-going 911 to feature an ultra-lightweight, high-performance hybrid system.

The new 911 GTS boasts enhanced driving performance based on a new 3.6-liter powertrain. It can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3 seconds and reach a top speed of 312 kilometers per hour. The model is equipped with the T-Hybrid system and an electric turbocharger developed using motorsport-derived technology, delivering lightweight yet powerful performance.

The new 911’s exterior has been meticulously refined to improve aerodynamics. It introduces the first fully digital instrument cluster in the 911 series. The Porsche Driver Experience system blends the 911’s iconic design DNA with cutting-edge technology, offering intuitive controls, customizable driving modes, and advanced driver assistance features for an unparalleled driving experience.

Porsche Korea will also unveil the fully electric SUV model Macan Electric. This vehicle combines Porsche’s signature sporty handling, long driving range, and outstanding everyday practicality. In particular, the Macan Electric Turbo model delivers a maximum over-boost output of 639 horsepower (470 kilowatts) when launch control is activated.

The Macan Electric’s design balances Porsche’s distinctive styling cues and advanced aerodynamics, resulting in a sportier, more contemporary look while maintaining the Macan’s unique character. As a performance SUV, it also offers generous interior space and versatility for daily use.

At the Seoul Mobility Show, Porsche Korea plans to exhibit 13 different models, including the new 911 and Macan Electric, the 904 Carrera GTS, the 99X Electric, the Taycan Turbo GT, the Taycan GTS, the Panamera GTS, and the Cayenne GTS.
