When the next Porsche BEV Model will come to market?
"We are targeting the first half of 2023"π³
"Then the all-electric Macan will be ready for the road. The well-camouflaged prototypes are now leaving the factory premises for the 1st time"
2 years π€
Steiner continued about the next 2023 BEV
"The Macan will indeed be built and developed on the Premium Platform Electric shared with Audi"
Nevertheless, he adds, it will be clearly different from future Audi vehicles. "The Macan will have the soul of a Porsche."
Planned delivery of the next Porsche BEV in 2 years tells us that they either have problems developing a competitive BEV SUV or feel good about continuing selling ICE & making profits with it
In any case, these lazy timelines prove that the pressure is still not high enough
No ICE Exit
"Yes, customer preferences are moving bit by bit in the direction of e-mobility"
"In Europe, the all-electric Macan will make the running, & soon also in the U.S. or China. In regions like the Middle East or Russia, the ICE will continue to dominate for a long time"
Steiner
"We let our customers choose" "We don't want to patronize them"
"Rather, the issue is whether it is a fossil fuel. E-fuels, however, will be nearly CO2 neutral. They only release the amount of CO2 that was previously taken out of the air to produce the e-fuel"
