Porsche recorded an impressive achievement by sending 226,026 units of cars to customers around the world during the first nine months of 2024. Despite a 7 percent decline compared to the same period last year, this German manufacturer remains optimistic about facing challenges, especially regarding limited product supply.

Members of the Executive Board of Sales and Marketing of Porsche AG Detlev von Platen, expressed confidence that sales results would increase towards the end of 2024, supported by the presence of new models.

The market curve around the world is still full of challenges. However, with the latest lineup of models in the company's history and sales distribution that remain balanced in various regions, we are in a strong position," von Platen said, quoted from Porsche's official website, Monday, October 14.

During the January-September 2024 period, the North American market was the largest contributor to sales with 61,471 units (down 5 percent), followed by Europe (excluding Germany) with 52,465 units (up 1 percent), and China with 43,280 units (down significantly 29 percent). Meanwhile, in Germany, Porsche managed to deliver 26,838 units, recording 8 percent growth compared to the same period the previous year.

In terms of modeling, Cayenne became the prima donna with sales reaching 77,686 units during the first nine months of 2024, up 21 percent from last year. In second place, the Porsche Macan managed to send 55,000 units, although it fell 20 percent because the latest generation of electric Tigers were still in the process of being sent to customers.

A new generation of fully electric missiles is now being handed over to the first customers. We believe this wait will pay off with the extraordinary performance and innovation of the Tigers," added von Platen.

The iconic Porsche 911 model remains popular around the world, with 39,744 units sold (up 2 percent). Meanwhile, Panamera recorded sales of 21,506 units (down 20 percent). For other sports models, 718 Boxsters and Cayman managed to record 10 percent growth with 18,048 shipments, while Taycan sold 14,042 units, a drastic drop of 50 percent from the previous year.

Despite facing various challenges, Porsche remains optimistic that it will move into the last quarter of 2024, relying on the latest models and the trust of loyal fans around the world.
