Porsche Malaysia, represented by Sime Darby Auto Performance, celebrates the official opening of the state-of-the-art Porsche Centre Johor Bahru (PCJB) on 1-December 2022. Located at Danga Bay, it is the first 4S Porsche Centre in Malaysia.
The 5,412-m2, 3-storey facility introduces the brand’s latest “Destination Porsche” corporate architecture concept, characterised by a strong emphasis on brand experience, with the aim of creating a gathering space for like-minded Porsche enthusiasts whilst appealing to new customers.
Reflecting Porsche’s latest brand architectural concept, the Porsche Centre has modular areas that can be flexibly integrated and adapted. These modules include a new model Highlight display, E-Performance, Porsche Classic, the Fitting Lounge, Delivery Bay, and Certified Pre-Owned cars.
The new lounge area provides a conducive social space for customers to consult with knowledgeable and highly trained Porsche staff, whilst also giving the Porsche community a cosy environment for gatherings.
The new Porsche Centre Johor Bahru also offers e-sports racing simulators for enthusiasts to hone their driving skills while igniting their fascination for the brand.

Keeping up with Porsche’s newfound green initiatives, the new dealership architecture features a full-length light well which allows as much natural light as possible to enter the building. This minimises light fittings and reduces electricity consumption.
Porsche Centre JB is also well-equipped with 175-kW high-performance DC and 22-kW AC charging points that are available exclusively for use to all Porsche Taycan owners.
