Porsche suffers biggest sales fall since 2009

The decline in Porsche's sales underscores the broader industry trend where manufacturers must navigate the transition to electric vehicles while also catering to existing petrol-powered model enthusiasts. The lack of a petrol variant for the Macan, a key product in their lineup, reflects a potential misalignment with consumer demand. Additionally, the weak demand in China, a crucial market for luxury brands, raises questions about the sustainability of Porsche's growth strategy in the face of shifting market conditions.
