Just by taking one look at the selection of new Porsche vehicles offered in this year's lineup, it's easy to see why more and more drivers are having these luxurious models delivered to their driveways. So many in fact that Porsche is seeing a steady increase in demand, setting up a year that could be the automaker's most successful yet.
By looking at the first quarter of sales, Porsche saw a 21.1 percent increase in deliveries when compared to last year's records. That means that 37,009 shiny new Porsche models made their way into customer driveways during January through March. Breaking company history, Porsche delivered over 14,000 models in the month of March alone. This is quite an impressive month of sales.
According to Bernhard Maier, Member of the Executive Board of Sales and Marketing of Porsche AG, there are a few driving forces behind these strong sales numbers. He explains, "The success of the first quarter encourages us to implement our Strategy 2018 systematically. Our responses to the uncertainties on the market are products that induce great enthusiasm in customers, such as the new Panamera as well as a highly motivated workforce."1
The vehicles most responsible for an increased amount of deliveries include the Porsche 911, Boxter, and the new Cayman model. We of course also have the new plug-in hybrid Panamera to look forward to as well, which recently debuted at the Auto China in Shanghai. This efficient yet powerful model will be a sure success on the market.
