In recent years, many car manufacturers have announced that they foresee a car market dominated by electric cars by 2030. Therefore, companies one after another goals and projects for electric cars They explained. However, when the incentives that countries gave to electric cars disappeared, consumer interest disappeared and the rise of electric cars suddenly stopped.

Porsche seems to be among those realizing that the interest in electric cars is temporary, at least for now. During the company’s latest quarterly financial presentation, Porsche Chief Financial Officer Lutz Meschke made a statement: There is a clear slowdown in consumer demand in the transition to electric cars He stated that people prefer petrol cars, especially in the premium segment.

In addition, Meschke said Porsche will give consumers what they want by updating its gasoline and plug-in hybrid cars. According to the statements made, the board of directors has instructed the R&D department Gasoline derivatives of electric cars It offers flexibility to develop alternative powertrains, including fully electric.

Does this mean that petrol versions of the current fully electric Porsche cars will also be introduced? That’s where things get a little complicated. Because Porsche believed in the transformation of electric cars, it designed its all-electric cars accordingly. For petrol or hybrid options a new infrastructure will have to design it. We’ll see over time whether he prefers this or not.
