Porsche Just Burned $2.6 Billion… And The Electric 718 Might Be Dead

Описание: Porsche is facing one of the biggest crises in its modern history.

The company has reportedly lost over $1 billion in a single quarter, its stock has dropped by more than half, and nearly 1,900 jobs are being cut. But the biggest shock may be what’s happening to the car that was supposed to define Porsche’s electric future.

The electric Porsche 718 Boxster and Cayman — the cars meant to replace the beloved gas-powered sports cars — may now be on the chopping block before customers ever get to drive them.

In this video, we break down the five major dominoes that pushed Porsche into this situation:

• The arrival of a new CEO with a reputation for cutting projects
• The bankruptcy of their key battery supplier
• The decision to kill the gas-powered 718 too early
• Porsche’s rapidly worsening financial situation
• And the cooling demand for expensive electric sports cars

The result? Porsche may have spent over €2.6 billion developing a car that could never reach production.

If the electric 718 gets cancelled or delayed for years, Porsche could be left without an entry-level sports car — something the brand has relied on for decades to bring new buyers into the Porsche world.

So what really went wrong?
And what does it mean for the future of Porsche?

Watch the full breakdown to find out.
