In the first six months of 2020, Porsche supplied a total of 116,964 cars to customers worldwide.
The COVID-19 crisis and the resulting closures of Porsche Centres over a period of several weeks resulted in a 12% decline in deliveries as compared to the same period of the prior year.
The Taycan likewise continues to be well received by customers, delivering 4,480 units in the first half of the year within the context of a staggered market launch.
A relatively positive trend is evident in the markets of Asia-Pacific, Africa and the Middle East. Here Porsche supplied a total of 55,550 cars to customers in the first half of 2020. With 39,603 deliveries, China remains the sports car manufacturer's largest single market in terms of volume.
In addition, Korea and Japan were strong markets in the region with sales of 4,242 and 3,675 units respectively, each showing double-digit growth rates over the prior year. 32,312 cars were supplied to European customers. In the U.S.A, Porsche supplied 24,186 cars between January and June.
