“Currently, the automotive markets are developing quite differently: uncertainty in Europe, competitive pressures in China, confidence in the U.S., growth in the Middle East and South-East Asia,” said Bernhard Maier, Porsche AG board member.
“Thanks to our strong brand, along with the most attractive range of models of all time, we are still on the course for growth. At the auto show in Paris, we shall surprise the world with an additional product highlight,” he added.
Maier did not elaborate on the new model, but aside from the Carrera 4 and 4S versions of the 911 that have already been revealed, Porsche has also been working on several new models these past months including the Macan compact SUV, the facelifted Panamera, the 911 GT3 and the 918 Spyder.
