A new entry-level model at Porsche?
This year, the prestigious manufacturer Porsche, who timidly celebrated the 40th anniversary of his model '914 ', seems more than ever interested in offer, as the age of a roadster, a new model said entry-level.
This is not new, as we talk about the interest it has to offer a model more accessible or less elaborate and less expensive than are the Boxster and Cayman models.
The Porsche 914
Offered between the years 1969 and 1976, the very original Porsche 914 had been conceived at the relevant time, in collaboration with Volkswagen. She had also inherited its main mechanical elements in order to reduce production costs caused by this sports car, offered a relatively limited circulation.
In fact, there were two models '914 'COLLECTED very differently. In Europe, this model was considered rather as a member of the Volkswagen family, while in America it was indeed identified with the name Porsche.
According to Wikipedia, it has sold 115,000 units of the model 914-4 and only 3,500 copies of the Porsche 914-6. The Europeans were sulking this model, but in America it was just the opposite.
Volkswagen BlueSport Concept
The year passes Auto Show in Detroit, Volkswagen we introduced a very nice roadster called Concept BlueSport. A beautiful jewel which came from multiple rumors about its imminent production.
Another rumor that circulates around this very concept taken by people from Volkswagen and visitors from Detroit, namely the production of a new roadster, but this time Audi claw and advance whose name remains one of R4.
Now this lady that rode around rumor manufacturer Porsche, which could also use the original approach of Volkswagen, to develop its own version of the concept and provide a new model is more affordable.
A logical
Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche have often been very close to one of the other manufacturers, and today more than ever. For example, let us remember the design, development and marketing of joint and respective SUV Porsche Cayenne, Volkswagen Touareg and Audi Q7.
Thus, I would not surprised to learn that a similar approach could give life three pretty roadsters, claws Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche, but with all the same their own identity, as was the case for SUV .. .
