Porsche introduced that it bought greater than 20,000 Taycan electrical automobiles in its first full-year of manufacturing.

The electrical automotive is turning into one of many model’s best-selling fashions.

Porsche Taycan in 2020

Porsche launched its 2020 outcomes right this moment and confirmed that whole deliveries have been down 3% in 2020 in comparison with its report 12 months in 2019.

The automaker is proud of the outcomes contemplating the hit that the auto market has taken amid the pandemic and attributes a few of that success to the Taycan.

Detlev von Platen, Member of the Govt Board for Gross sales and Advertising at Porsche AG, commented:

“The coronavirus disaster posed a fantastic problem from spring 2020 onwards. However, we have been capable of maintain deliveries comparatively secure for the 12 months as a complete. Our recent, engaging product vary, the profitable begin of the Taycan as the primary all-electric Porsche and the charisma of our model – all this contributed to this constructive end result regardless of the troublesome occasions.”

Porsche confirmed that they delivered simply over 20,000 Taycan electrical automobiles in 2020:

“Taycan deliveries totalled 20,015 in 2020, regardless of a six-week pause in manufacturing simply as the brand new mannequin was ramping up, and regardless of many markets planning spring premieres. “

That was concerning the unique deliberate manufacturing capability for the Taycan, however the automaker has been speaking about ramping manufacturing if it sees extra demand.

Electrek’s Take: A Sturdy Begin for the Taycan

Amid the pandemic, that is definitely a great end result for Porsche.

Additionally, Porsche was nonetheless ramping issues up for the Taycan in 2020 with the less expensive 4S version not coming until a few months into the year and the RWD model, which was only launched in China during the second half of the year.

Regardless of that, in some markets in Europe, the Taycan is actually turning into Porsche’s best-selling mannequin.

As soon as the German automaker can ramp up these cheaper variations in additional markets, I can see them ramping up deliveries of the Taycan by double-digit factors in 2021.

You even have the Cross Turismo model coming that may open up the marketplace for the Taycan.

With that and the electrical Macan coming, I can see a big a part of Porsche gross sales being electrical subsequent 12 months.
