Port of Spain – Porsche Centre Trinidad is electrifying the roads of Trinidad and Tobago, not just with their sleek electric vehicles, but by turbocharging the local EV infrastructure with the roll-out of new public charging stations. 2022 saw the spark of this initiative with five zippy chargers at Hilton Hotel and Piarco Plaza, ensuring Porsche EV drivers can stay juiced up on the go.
In a bold move that’s part eco-warrior, part tech-savvy, Porsche unleashed its first all-electric speedster, the Porsche Taycan, back in 2019. This electric beast not only turned heads but also marked a significant shift in the automotive world. Fast forward to today, and Porsche is riding the electric wave with plans to launch at least four new electric models by the end of the decade, as announced in their electrifying annual press conference.
2022 was a milestone year for Porsche Centre Trinidad, driving forward their commitment to a greener, cleaner Trinidad and Tobago. With the successful introduction of the Porsche Taycan, they’ve accelerated the expansion of their EV charging network. Think of it as a pit stop for the future – Porsche drivers can now power up at various hotspots while enjoying a spot of shopping or a leisurely meal.
The company’s high-voltage plan includes doubling the number of destination chargers in the market by 2023. Already, UPick in Chaguaramas and Brentwood Mall in Chaguanas are sporting shiny new Porsche chargers, with more installations revving up for South Trinidad.
Porsche’s foray into the EV market isn’t just about speed and style; it’s a breath of fresh air, literally. The Taycan, and its electric siblings, emit zero carbon emissions, making them a clean, green driving machine. Francesca Pestana, E-Performance Manager at Porsche Centre Trinidad, shared, “With a Porsche EV, you’re not just driving; you’re making a statement for a sustainable future. Our expanding network of chargers, including those in Tobago, ensures that our drivers are never far from an energy boost.”
As the automotive industry gears up for a greener future, Porsche is not just keeping pace but setting the speed. With their commitment to electrification and a seamless infrastructure, Porsche Centre Trinidad is steering the country towards a more sustainable, electrically-charged future. So, buckle up, Trinidad and Tobago, because the future is electric, and it’s arriving in style!
