Porsche plans all-electric Paramela to compete with AMG EQS, Lucid Air
As electric vehicles continue to evolve, many traditional car companies are turning to electrification. Among them, Porsche launched the all-electric Taycan in 2019, and according to Porsche CEO Oliver Blume, Porsche delivered more than 300,000 vehicles worldwide in 2021, 41,296 of which were the all-electric Taycan, which even outsold the fuel-efficient Porsche 911.
According to electrek today, Porsche continued its electrification process with the delivery of 18,900 all-electric Taycans in the first half of this year. Porsche will be releasing more electric models as it moves forward with electrification. According to Autocar UK, Porsche plans to launch an all-electric Panamera and a second-generation all-electric version of the Taycan, both of which will be based on the Volkswagen SSP Sport platform.
The Volkswagen SSP Sport platform, which was developed under Porsche's leadership, has a low cabin floor to help lower the vehicle's center of gravity. The all-electric Paramela is still in the early stages of development, but the car's wheelbase is expected to be on par with the Chinese version of the Paramela, which means the all-electric Paramela will compete with the Mercedes-Benz AMG EQS and Lucid Air. For reference, the wheelbase of the domestic version of the Palamera is 3100mm and the length of the car is 5199mm.
Porsche CFO Lutz Meschke said in July this year that the profitability of Porsche electric cars will reach the level of fuel cars in the next two years. At the same time, Porsche plans to achieve 50% of the company's sales for electric cars by 2025, and 80% of Porsche's sales for electric cars by 2030.
