Porsche: Macan is the favorite in Switzerland
SALES The Porsche dealer network delivered more than 4,000 new vehicles in Switzerland for the first time in 2022. Porsche Schweiz AG, founded in 2008, thus exceeded its previous best result of 2016 by 234 units.
2022 was a record year not only for Bentley, Lamborghini and Rolls-Royce, but also for Porsche. Porsche Switzerland delivered a total of 4204 cars last year. The increase compared to 2021 is 9.3 percent, and compared to 2019, the increase is around 13 percent.
Michael Glinski, CEO Porsche Schweiz AG (center gallery): "Our excellent delivery result is overshadowed by distressing events in Europe and the world. Within the Porsche community, however, we also have good things ahead of us. Many new products await us, and in addition, with 75 years of Porsche sports cars, we are celebrating the dream of company founder Ferdinand Porsche - the dream of the ideal sports car."
Switzerland is the land of 911 fans
The Macan continues to enjoy great popularity in Switzerland. It was sold 1410 times, mostly as a GTS. The second most popular model was the iconic 911, with dealerships delivering a total of 1028 vehicles, most frequently in the 911 Carrera 4 GTS Coupé version. The 718 mid-engine sports car was delivered 191 times. It is available as an open Boxster and closed Cayman.
The Cayenne celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2022 and recorded 758 deliveries. Customers most frequently opted for the E-Hybrid Platinum Edition. The classic SUV shape of the Cayenne has been complemented by a coupe body since 2018. In 2022, both rear sections were roughly equally popular. The plug-in hybrid concept for the Panamera sporty luxury sedan met with great approval. Around 66 percent opted for the Sport Turismo hatchback.
Quarter of new registrations electrified
Swiss dealers handed over the first all-electric Porsche 599 times last year. In the meantime, the Taycan presented in 2019 is available in three designs, as a sedan with a trunk lid and as a Cross Turismo and Sport Turismo with a tailgate.
The most popular model was the Cross Turismo body. The Taycan accounted for just over 14 percent of all Swiss deliveries. Plug-in hybrids accounted for around 13 percent. This means that more than a quarter of the new Porsche vehicles delivered in Switzerland in 2022 had a fully or partially electric drive.
