Golf stars raving about the new Taycan

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Stuttgart/Hamburg. Principle performer on the number 17 tee: the 2019 #porscheeuropeanopen has, alongside a top field, another protagonist that is causing quite a stir far beyond the bounds of the #porsche Nord Course. Only a few hours after its world premiere, the new #porsche #taycan Turbo drove up to the #green Eagle #golf Courses club heading for the 17th hole. On public show for the first time during the tournament week, the first all-electric sports car from #porsche has been sitting there majestically as an extraordinary hole-in-one prize ever since. Spectators also have the unique opportunity at the #porsche Public Hole-in-One #competition to qualify for a tee shot on the 17th - and therefore the chance to win the #taycan.

The European Open #golf stars have the best view of the 680 PS electric athlete. Below are their thoughts about their first encounter with the #porsche #taycan Turbo.

Xander Schauffele (USA):
“We golfers should always focus on the next shot, but I did actually get distracted by the #taycan. It looks really good, I’d love to have one. I also fully back Porsche’s e-mobility efforts. At the moment, my foundation, which will basically concentrate on environmental issues, is at the planning stage. I can hardly wait, even if it’s probably going to take a while, to sit in my own #taycan.”

Paul Casey (England):
“I’m very impressed by the new #taycan. It looks super. Right after the premiere, I read a lot about the car and thought that it’s incredibly fast. And the recharging times are fantastic. The colour is pretty cool, the wheels are good lookers. I also naturally look at the car from the point of view of a father – there’s ample space for my two children in the back seats. Pretty impressive.”

Matt Kuchar (USA):
“My playing partners and I all agreed that the #taycan is such a beautiful car. It’s sure to be a hit, it can’t be any other way. I spoke to my ball in the air on its way to the #green as I was actually in with a chance of winning it. It’d be unbelievable to drive it.”

Patrick Reed (USA):
“It looks good. What I like is that the colour of the rims matches the car’s colour. It’s a cool look. And I also like the, as always, smooth lines that make the #porsche what it is.”

Lucas Bjerregaard (Denmark):
“The car is lovely. And electric drive is the future, as is by the way my two-year old daughter. She’d have plenty of space in the back, which is a big advantage. Unfortunately, I’ll have to wait a while until I can drive it myself. I’ve heard the #taycan is very popular.”
