With this many sales, surely the Porsche Cayenne has to be the SUV to beat
Porsche Malaysia, represented by Sime Darby Auto Performance, celebrates its 1,000th Porsche Cayenne rolling off the production line at its assembly facility at Inokom in Kulim, Kedah. It is also the first local assembly facility for Porsche outside of Europe established in March 2022.
The iconic Porsche ‘sports car for five’ recently celebrated its 20th birthday in 2022, and through the years with each generation, it has become an important member of the Porsche family. The latest Cayenne continues this illustrious legacy with stellar off-road capability, dynamism on-road and opulent luxury making it an all-rounder.
Moreover, Christopher Hunter, CEO of Sime Darby Auto Performance, said, “We are very pleased to reach this milestone with the locally assembled Cayenne, affirming once again that the Porsche SUV remains a favourite with our customers.”
“Our local assembly facility in Inokom continues to support our growth, to meet the demand from sports car fans in Malaysia. This growth in demand also speaks volumes about our high quality – proof that a Porsche is built to the highest standards.” He added.
The local assembly facility also underlines the importance of Malaysia to Porsche, affirming the long-standing partnership between Porsche and Sime Darby. It continues to be a fully staffed by highly skilled Malaysians, empowering the futures of local communities and helping the local economy as well.
On top of that, lifestyle-oriented technology and equipment accessories are also available upon request for the locally assembled Porsche Cayenne, including a roof transport system with a bicycle rack, a luggage net, a luggage compartment liner, all-weather floor mats, a car care case and more.
Those looking for even more exclusivity can also opt for the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur Package, which adds luxury elements on the locally-assembled Cayenne. It also adds a SportDesign exterior package, a Sports exhaust system, LED taillights, LED door projectors with the Porsche logo and a matching vehicle key as well.
A bespoke Porsche Design custom-made chronograph is also available, inspired by the locally assembled Cayenne. The coloured ring on the dial is customisable based on the colours of the Cayenne, and additional individual engraving can be performed to make your Cayenne truly one of a kind.
What’s more, aside from this significant milestone, the locally assembled Porsche Cayenne has also already taken on vibrant expeditions throughout Malaysia since its launch a year ago and has since been unleashing possibilities and proving its mettle as a luxurious and reliable travel companion both on and off the roads.
So what do you guys think about this? How soon do you think Porsche will be able to roll out another 1,000 Cayenne SUVs?
