Repositioning and creative of the Porsche 911 C4 (an all-wheel drive 911) for the Singapore market.

1. Challenge: The C4 is an all-wheel drive version of the iconic 911.
But it’s heavier and costs an additional S$20K.
Buyers didn’t see the point. Sales were suffering.

2. Background: The allure of the 911 has been, in many respects,
based on its extreme rear-wheel biased handling.
In fact, it’s well known that when driven hard,
the 911 is downright dangerous. On the other
hand, the C4 is much easier to control, yet it is
perceived as the less ‘pure’ incarnation of the 911.

3. Groundwork: A test-drive uncovered surprising results: the C4 is
decidedly rear-wheel biased. It looks and behaves
just like a rear-wheel drive 911. Yet it also inspires
extreme confidence when pushed hard – a feeling
unknown to 911 owners.

When pushed, traction declines and then disappears. When pushed, traction drops in a slow, linear manner.

4. Solution: A repositioning was needed. Not just on the
showroom floor, but also in the minds of buyers.
Insight: Since many 911 buyers view their purchase
as the long-time realisation of a childhood dream,
any new 911 must remain true to its origins.
