Porsche vai elevar produção do Cayenne em 2012!

SUV é o modelo mais vendido da marca no mundo.

A Porsche vai aumentar a produção do Cayenne no ano que vem, após um expressivo aumento de 37% nas vendas do modelo no primeiro semestre de 2011. A marca planeja incrementar o volume de carros fabricados entre 10% e 20%, segundo o chefe de vendas da empresa, Bernhard Maier.

“Estamos estudando várias maneiras de aumentar a capacidade produtiva para atender às expectativas dos nossos clientes da forma mais rápida possível”, declarou Maier.

Atualmente, o utilitário esportivo é o modelo mais vendido da marca alemã. A procura pelo carro é tão grande que a fila de espera para comprar um Cayenne chega a ser de até um ano em mercados como a China. Com o aumento da produção, a Porsche deseja reduzir o tempo de espera pela metade.

A iminente fusão com a Volkswagen – que pode acontecer nos próximos meses – deve contribuir com os planos da Porsche. Com os recursos da VW, a empresa de Stuttgart pretende dobrar suas vendas, atingindo a marca de 200 mil veículos comercializados até 2018. Para tanto, a Porsche aposta no sucesso de um novo utilitário esportivo compacto – por ora conhecido pelo codinome Cajun – e nas boas vendas registradas nos mercados emergentes.

Porsche 911 Carrera Review

Every time Porsche changes the 911, they take the risk that they'll ruin it (I know, purists will argue they did that when they switched from air to water-cooled engines). What's remarkable is how, every time, they dodge that bullet. It's the greatest high-wire act on earth...with continuous performances for the past 46 years.

If you'd asked me, I'd have told you that the 2008 911 was as good as they'd ever be able to make. I'd have been wrong.

The 2009 immediately announces its superiority. It performs better (even in the "base" Carrera, which I drove for a week recently), the interior is nicer, the electronic aids (Porsche Stability Management, Anti-lock Braking System, Anti-Slip Regulation, Engine Drag Torque Control and Active Brake Differential) all do their jobs with less intrusion on the joy and sport of driving.

And the styling refresher is a resounding success...taking the headlights ever so slightly more vertical evokes memories of the 911s of the 60s, 70s and 80s without being overtly retro.

Looking for excuses not to buy?

How about price? Porsches are insanely expensive, right? Wrong. The 911 Carrera base price is $75,600...there are a lot of far less capable vehicles that cost a lot more.

Gas mileage? Nope. The EPA says 18 city/25 highway.

Well, it can't possibly be environmentally responsible, Mike.

Um...it qualifies for LEV1 (Low Emission Vehicle) status.

Actually, price (and, okay, practicality...the back seats are a cruel joke) is about the only disqualifier that's genuine for most people. But in about five years, this is going to be the best used car purchase you've ever made.
