December 20, 2012, 12:58pm

The delivery of Porsche vehicles around the world in the first 11 months of the year has reached a total of 128,978 units, surpassing its 2011 sales by 10,110 units. In November alone, the Stuttgart-based sports car manufacturer sold a total of 12,928 vehicles, achieving an increase of 38.7 percent over the same month last year.

“Our current product initiative has continuously improved the attractiveness of the Porsche brand in 2012,” said Bernhard Maier, Member of the Executive Board Sales and Marketing of Porsche AG. “The fact that we have already surpassed the previous year’s result in November is no reason for us to rest on our laurels. On the contrary, it is an incentive to deliver maximum performance in the next year – in spite of continued uncertainty in the marketplace.”

In November, Porsche reported increased turnover in all regions. The range was in particularly high demand in the US: 3,865 vehicles delivered, representing an increase of 71.4 percent compared to the same month last year.

In the second largest Porsche market, China, the sports car manufacturer also achieved an increase of 63.4 percent compared to November 2011, having delivered 2,919 vehicles to customers.

The third generation of the Porsche Boxster is in high demand internationally. Deliveries of around 1,200 Roadster cars equate to a near three-fold increase compared to the same month last year.

Even the classic sports car Porsche 911 Carrera enjoys great popularity around the world. In November, 2,019 vehicles were delivered to customers, which is an increase of 91.6 percent over the same month last year.
