Porsche revives factory from May 4th, to resume production
The reason for the postponement of factory closure is a supply chain problem
The main reason for the postponement of the factory closure is that Porsche says, "We cannot procure the necessary parts."
It is said that the closure period of the two factories, Zufenhausen and Leipzig, which are currently closed, will be further extended, and this time the "until" holiday period has not been announced.
I think it's just like looking at the situation and deciding the future.
Of course, the prevention of corona infection is also the case, but even if humans completely prevent infection, if there are no parts to make Porsche, Porsche can not be made.
By the way, at the Zuffenhausen factory in Stuttgart, Porsche 911 and 718 series, and Taycan are manufactured, and at the Leipzig factory, Panamera and Macan are manufactured.
The Cayenne is said to be manufactured at Volkswagen's Bratislava plant in Slovakia, along with Volkswagen's Touareg and Audi Q7.
Continuing the holidays of the two main Porsche factories is likely to have a considerable impact on Porsche's sales and delivery in the future, but I think that this will not be the case.
Anyway, now, I wonder if each and every one of the world has to thoroughly prevent infection and support and pray for the development of medicines and vaccines as soon as possible. Each one wants to do what they can do now ^^
