Porsche Young Driver Experience

Safety and driver preparedness are our top goals with the Porsche Young Driver Experience. Starting with a brief classroom session, drivers then hit the course in 911 and Taycans to tackle five, 30-minute exercises, designed to simulate real-world challenges. A dedicated Porsche Drive Coach is along for every minute of the program, offering tailored instruction to help young motorists mature into roadworthy stars.
