Emma returned the Porsche – would rather buy the Dacia

The tennis player Emma Raducanu is actually an ambassador for Porsche. But in reality, she would rather drive Dacia. So the cars have been replaced.

Tennis player Emma Raducanu is just 21 years old. But she already has a Grand Slam title and the side job as Porsche ambassador on her CV.

But that doesn't mean she wants to drive Porsche. In fact, for the last few years she has had a Carrera GTS Cabriolet at Porsche's expense. But now she has returned the car. And not to get next year's model. Instead, she wants to go back in a Dacia.

This is written by the newspaper The Sun.

– My father is from Romania, and Dacia was his first car.

– I will never change it. I bought this car a few days after choir card day. It was right around the time of the corona pandemic, and there was supposed to be a lockdown, so I had to hurry, she says of her Dacia.

Raducanu is currently number 57 in the world ranking in the sport of tennis. But that doesn't mean that she's had any problems. Porsche also confirms that the car has been sent back.

The 21-year-old tennis star is not the only one who has absolutely not had good feelings, simply because the money rolls into the account quickly. One of football's biggest stars, for example, drives in a Fiat Panda – i.e. the original – to and from training. Read more about it here .

Back at Dacia, there is not much to look forward to either. Other than cars that just keep on humming. At least if you ask the Danish importer. Several times the brand has made a name for itself – i.a. here at Boosted.dk – with cars that have maps really far out on the Danish roads.

Blue. at truck driver Helle Linnerup, who has 70 Dacias in operation. They all have at least 800,000/900,000 kilometers on them.
