Chief Executive Michael Leiters outlined a strategy to simplify the company’s operations through 2035, moving away from complex model variants toward a leaner, more efficient structure. The automaker plans to shed 5,000 additional jobs, building on a previous reduction of 3,900 roles, while streamlining departments to cut personnel costs by up to 30%. These measures are designed to drop the company’s break-even point below 200,000 units, a significant adjustment from the 280,000 vehicles delivered in 2025.

Porsche Targets Luxury Pivot with 20% Price Hike on Top-End Models
Porsche is recalibrating its business model to prioritize exclusivity and high-margin sales, with plans to raise the average price of its top-tier vehicles by 20% to 330,000 euros. As the automaker navigates global market headwinds, it aims to slash production costs and sharpen its focus on profitability over sheer volume.
The push for higher profitability involves divesting non-core assets, including stakes in Bugatti Rimac and the Rimac Group, alongside the closure of specialized subsidiaries like Cellforce Group. Financial targets are ambitious: the firm aims for a group operating return on sales of up to 15% in the medium term, a sharp jump from the 1.1% reported in 2025. This transition will be supported by a steady cadence of brand-defining product launches, including new all-electric models in 2028 and a high-margin mid-engined sports car positioned above the iconic 911.
