PORSCHE TO ASSEMBLE CARS IN INDIA
Posted 23rd September, 2007 in Porsche | 2 Comments
Porsche has said that it not only wants to sell more of its cars to India, but for the first time in its history it will shed its ‘Made in Germany’ image to produce models in India.
Porsche already has an India office, unlike in the past where it has only worked through importers and dealers. So by 2010 the action will really hot up and the VW group plus Porsche are only going to get more and more aggressive in India.
Porsche has said that it expects to triple sales from the Indian market over three years. Last year, the company sold 160 luxury cars in the domestic market and is seeking to increase the number to 550. As part of its expansion plan, the company also plans to increase its dealer base in India Bangalore, Hyderabad and Chennai.

This makes me very sad. Hopefully they will only be assembling Cayennes/Boxsters there.
