The demonic fans of electrification, who propagate the beautiful far without internal combustion engines, deliberately or disinterestedly, but “pour water” on the windmill of superprofits of car companies.
The demonic fans of electrification, who propagate the beautiful far without internal combustion engines, deliberately or disinterestedly, but “pour water” on the windmill of superprofits of car companies. The AvtoVzglyad portal was convinced of this by carefully reading the latest statement from the CEO of Porsche.
Nobody pulled the tongue of the CEO of Porsche AG. But Mr. Oliver Blum himself recently told the respectable public the whole womb of the truth, crucifying the journalists in the course of yet another stylishly crafted presentation. Dedicated to a brand program called Road to 20. In short, the company is going to push “forward and up” as part of the general trend of electrification.
Following the electric Porsche Taycan, an electric Macan will be rolled out to customers in 2024. The electric Porsche 718 is planned for 2025, and then Europe and the rest of the universe will see the all-electric Cayenne. In short, Porsche wants to increase the share of electric models in its range above 80% by 2030. And even build a new (of course also fully electric) crossover model bigger than the Cayenne in the future.
“Well, the flag is right there in their hands,” you say to this. And personally I will also add from myself “a drum around the neck and a locomotive to meet them”! But the real salt lies in another part of Mr. Blum’s speech. It is striking that for a thinking person it explains perfectly: why does a German company really need all this electric fashion.
It turns out that the number in the name of the Road to 20 plan has not been taken from the ceiling. It means that when the brand launched a number of electric trains, it decided to achieve an operating margin of more than 20%! For an ordinary person, this is an empty sentence. Therefore, I will say that Volkswagen has the same profitability that does not exceed 3-5%. In premium BMW, it failed to reach 8% at the end of 2022. Against this background, Porsche, which is already putting its electric cars on the market with all its might, achieved a profitability of almost 18% last year. And now compare this with 7.5% of the same indicator for the same Hyundai, which is just seriously entering this market segment.
In general, the electric “chest” (as always) just opens – with money. Thanks to the general obsession with the environment, electric vehicles can now be sold for much more than comparable consumer properties of combustion engine cars. Alone and everything. After all, most eco-buyers of “electric trains” are sure (thanks to the skillful manipulation of public opinion by eco-activists!) that electricity is drawn from an outlet. And not by continuously burning millions of tons of coal and natural gas. And since “people hawala”, why not “sell” him something expensive for something like that? Even flawed in essence, but fashionable in shape!
