North American Porsche delivery in the first quarter of 2022 is 13,042 units
Porsche sales in North America for the first quarter of 2022 (January 5th to March 31st, 2022) have been announced.
Combined sales of all Porsche models in the first quarter were only 13,042 units, a decrease of 24.9% from the same period of the previous year.
However, the previous year 2021 was a miraculously strong year with the highest sales volume in the history of Porsche in North America, and as you all know, there are various difficult situations in the current world, and Porsche also has various problems. There is a problem with its supply and transportation.
Kjell Gruner, CEO of Porsche Cars North America, Inc., said:
"We are working tirelessly with Porsche in Germany on supply issues. I think this number is the result of 194 dealers in North America working continuously to make Porsche purchases, orders, deliveries and services the best customer experience. "
It is said that.
Below is a breakdown of Porsche's first quarter sales in North America:
model | January-March 2021 | January-March 2022 |
911 | 2,782 | 2,123 |
718 | 1,506 | 782 |
Taycan | 2,008 | 1,925 |
Panamera | 451 | 787 |
Cayenne | 4,230 | 2,653 |
Macan | 6,391 | 4,772 |
total | 17,368 | 13,042 |
It is said that SUV models are doing their best and sales of Macan and Cayenne are going well ... but it has decreased considerably from the same period of the previous year.
Following that, 911 and Taycan. If anything, I feel that these two models are able to maintain the numerical values in a better sense.
The number of 718 and Panamera is less than 800 each, and although the number of Panamera is still higher than the same period of the previous year, the decline of 718 is amazing.
Why is this again? Are you all waiting for 718 to be electrified? ?? No, isn't that the case?
Well, I wonder if the production of the 718 couldn't keep up with the US for some reason.
I don't know the numbers for this year at all because I can't think that "this model was popular or not" just from the numbers.
Porsche certified used cars have stable sales performance
The number of Porsche-certified used cars sold in the first quarter of 2022 in North America is 7,616 units, an increase of 7% from the same period of the previous year.
The reason why Porsche sales in the first quarter of this year fell from the previous year is not that Porsche has become less popular or is not selling, but also in North America due to various problems, Porsche's new car can not be "supplied (delivered)" It seems that the place is big.
It may be a bit bad to say, but even the model that was so-called "you can buy it as you like if you pay for it" in Porsche now is not quite "you can get it immediately if you pay". I think.
As with certified used cars, the Porsche that I was able to meet now is in a situation where if I do not make a decision now, it may become a Porsche that will never be available to that person in the future. I wonder if it is.
Not only is there a supply chain problem that will continue, but there are also restrictions imposed by regulations that will become even stricter ... Then, when it comes to future Porsche purchases, if you really want it, you should act immediately. I thought again.
