Porsche AG CEO Oliver Blume said that the debut of this Taycan Cross Turismo will be postponed to early 2021 instead of this year.

According to Oliver Blume, "The postponement of the announcement of this Taycan Turismo is not bad for Porsche at all, it is just an optimization of the cycle plan."

"Porsche is confidently looking to the future," Porsche said, even under the various circumstances of the coronavirus so far, more than any other European carmaker in the first half of this year. It is mentioned that it was possible to make a profit.

By the way, one of the major reasons for making this profit was the recovery of demand in China.

According to Bloomberg, Porsche, Tesla and Toyota were able to stay in the black in the first half of this year, while other automakers have suffered significant losses due to factory and showroom closures.

Not only did it eliminate unnecessary costs, but for Porsche, the strong sales of the Taycan model and the new Porsche 911 (992) turbo and Targa models helped to survive the current difficult market.

"Porsche has undergone many changes during this coronavirus. It was important to focus on the essence," he said.Announcement of new facelifted PanameraMr. Oliver Blume who talked later.

There is no change in Porsche's investment in electric vehicles and digital services itself, and the plug-in hybrid Panamera is one of the key models that helped Porsche shift to electric models, this plug-in hybrid version. Panamera is said to have paved the way for the Taikan rollout last year.

By the way, in Panamera, in Europe, customers' 60% and above are choosing the plug-in hybrid model. That's certainly amazing.

Project with Audi

Audi and Porsche have teamed up to design a dedicated electric vehicle architecture for future models to fight Tesla.

This collaboration between Audi and Porsche started to reduce development costs by 30% and support electric vehicles including the next version of Porsche Macan.

No postponement for Macan electric car

According to Oliver Blume, the prototype test of the electric car Macan has already started, and the project itself is proceeding smoothly.

In addition, Porsche predicts that by 2025, about half of Porsche shipped to the world will be a partially or fully electrified model.

The plug-in hybrid model will account for about 10% of sales, and the fully electric vehicle will account for about 40% (both by Oliver Blume).

"The future belongs to electric mobility".

This is the words of Oliver Blume.
