China sales however fell 24% to 16,340 vehicles. Porsche blamed “the focus on value oriented sales, the continued tense economic situation in [China] and a strong equivalent period in the previous year due to initial post-Covid catch-up effects”.
North America volume fell 23% to 15,087 vehicles explained mainly by “a customs related delay in the shipping of some models”.
Overseas and emerging markets sales rose 14% to 14,895 cars.
