Like hundreds of others, they’ve been patiently awaiting the arrival of the new Porsche Taycan in Australia and they were given a sneak peek prior to launch by none other than Porsche Ambassador Mark Webber.

The motorsport star surprised each owner close to where they live, arriving in a brand new Taycan. They were instantly enamoured with the Taycan and with Webber, as they got to be the first customers in Australia to drive the new all-electric Porsche sportscar.

After a quick change to let Mark move into the driver’s seat, it was off to a nearby racing circuit to put the Taycan through its paces. It didn’t disappoint as each hot lap showed exactly what Porsche’s latest sportscar is capable of. Behind the wheel, Webber didn’t hold back as the precision and power were all on show.

If the looks on the faces on each of the owners were anything to go by, the unexpected thrills were well worth it. To see the surprising vision from this event, watch the full video above.

The Taycan will be hitting the streets of Australia from Saturday 27 February 2021. For further information, please contact your local Porsche Centre.
