The all-new Porsche Cayenne 2024 will also be produced in Bratislava. Legendary SUV.

The fourth generation All-new Cayenne 2024 will also be produced in Bratislava. Porsche AG is laying the groundwork for the further electrification of its model lines: The sports car manufacturer has decided to manufacture the future all-electric Cayenne at Volkswagen Slovakia’s multi-brand location in Bratislava. The Bratislava plant produces vehicles and gearboxes. In 2020, a total of 309,348 vehicles rolled off the production line and 96,280 gearboxes were produced. The model range includes the Volkswagen Touareg, Volkswagen up!, Volkswagen e-up! and Audi, Porsche and ŠKODA models (Audi Q7, Audi Q8, Porsche Cayenne, Porsche Cayenne Coupé and ŠKODA KAROQ). The Martin plant produces components. In 2020, a total of 21.8 million components such as synchronization rings, flanged shafts and differential housings which are used in a variety of Volkswagen Group brands were produced.
After the Taycan (since 2019), the Macan (in 2024) and the 718 (middle of the decade), the Cayenne will become the sports car manufacturer’s fourth model line with an all-electric powertrain. Porsche has already announced a further all-electric SUV above the Cayenne for the second half of the decade. That model will be produced at the Porsche factory in Leipzig. Courageous: an SUV with Porsche DNA
The large drop in the dollar exchange rate, the model policy and the high production costs created problems for the company from 1986 onwards; Porsche was heading for an economic low point. The sports car manufacturer sold 23,000 cars in 1991, half as many as five years previously. Losses added up to 240 million Deutschmarks by the end of 1992. The low point was reached in the fiscal year 1992/1993 with sales of only 14,362 vehicles; in the fiscal year 1989/1990, the sales volume was still 31,235 units. A short time later, in January 1993, the Boxster concept, presented by the Swabians at the Detroit Motor Show, received a very enthusiastic reception. The company seemed to have reinvented itself. Porsche then produced the Boxster sports car, also a two-seater, alongside the 911 product line. It ensured a strong upturn with 32,000 cars sold in 1996.

But you do not rest on your laurels in Zuffenhausen. It has always been like that. The next step was to decide which model could supplement the range in the near future. What would people be craving at the beginning of the 21st Century? What needed to be developed at the end of the 1990s? Gazing into the crystal ball: what car could be appropriate for the market? What could boost revenue? A third two-door car from Zuffenhausen? No, not another two-door car. The “Colorado” project was launched: a collaboration with Volkswagen as Porsche did not want to go it alone with an off-road vehicle. The requirements: powerful with dynamic driving features and suitable for all types of terrain. A five-seater family car with typical Porsche DNA. Sporty.
