Looks like we may have some final info regaridng the subject from the August 2009 edition of Porsche Post (the better UK version of the PCA Panorama rag).
Quoting: "The rumour factory, this time in Automobilewoche, reported recently that Porsche is contemplating an entry level roadster based on the Volkswagen's BlueSport platform. This must have hit a nerve in Zuffenhausen because it was quickly and firmly denied by Klaus Berning, Board member for sales and marketing, and his denial was reinforced by Detlev von Platen, CEO of Porsche Cars North America...." "There is no business case for Porsche in small cars," says Berning. "It isn't that we haven't analysed the possibilities. A small car has to meet our internal profit goals, and we have to make money on every car we sell. A small car does not fit in...." |
