His simple objective: to build “a fast car, a good car, the best in its class” has driven us ever since, pushing the brand forward and making it the leader in automotive luxury around the world today. As we roll-out our goals for the future, we are confident that we will continue to craft, design and engineer the world’s most desirable high-performance grand tourers, of which the reveal this evening of Bentley EXP 100 GT is a testament.”

Speaking during the launch event, Colin Sattar, General Manager of Porsche Centre Bahrain, said: “Just like the first generation, the latest 911 is a sports car for the new era. Our icon has once again evolved and is now more powerful, more emotional, and more efficient than its predecessors. It is the best 911 Porsche has ever produced and this eighth generation maintains the 911’s status as a pure driver's car that also offers everyday usability and unique design. As such, I am delighted to announce that the 911 Carrera S and the 911 Carrera 4S are now available here in Bahrain.”

The new Porsche Macan has arrived in Bahrain with its distinctive and confident appearance coupled with a perfect balance of emotions and functionality.

 

Following a comprehensive upgrade, one of Porsche’s most popular models, the Macan, is now available in Bahrain. 

 

With performance credentials that underline the model’s position as the true sports car in its segment, the latest generation was showcased to guests at a special event held by Porsche Centre Bahrain, Behbehani Brothers at its showroom in Sitra. 

 

The brand’s compact SUV has evolved in terms of comfort and driving dynamics, with two engine versions available at launch, the Macan and the more powerful Macan S.

 

Colin Sattar, General Manager of Porsche Centre Bahrain, said: “The Macan has been one of our most successful series in Bahrain and with the new generation combining even more pronounced Porsche DNA, greater performance and comfort, I am confident that the success story is sure to continue. I believe that the Macan is the most exciting compact SUV on the market, never allowing you to forget it is a true sports car at heart."

Behbehani Brothers presents the all-new 2019 RAM 1500 at the Jumeirah Royal Saray Bahrain.

The all-new 2019 model has been completely overhauled, making it better than ever, offering even more capability, strength and performance. But even this monumental progress wasn’t enough to satisfy the Ram engineering team, which is why they also pushed innovation, technology and refinement to entirely new heights, revolutionising the brand’s flagship vehicle in what is perhaps its most significant redesign ever.

 

The editors of Cars.com summed it up perfectly when they named the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 “Best of Show” at the 2018 North American International Auto Show, saying that “Ram has climbed to the top of the heap for its blend of capability, comfort, technology and efficiency.” Further proof of this is that the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 was the only truck to be named on Ward’s 2018 10 Best Interiors List alongside a short list of premium luxury vehicles.

 

 The 2019 RAM comes in four variations 'Big Horn', 'Laramie', 'Rebel' and the top of the line 'Limited'
