“We started with around 70 units a day. Today we produce five times as much owing to the high market demand. In the past year alone, over 83,000 Cayenne vehicles for customers in more than 125 countries have rolled off the assembly line, ‘said Oliver Blume of Porsche Ag.

About 2500 Porsche customers each year take delivery of their new Cayenne trucks at the plant and use its track and off-road circuit. The unnamed owner of the 500,000th Cayenne did the same, traveling from Austria to the Saxony to accept during a brief ceremony the key to his white S Diesel with a 382 horsepower V8 engine and a top speed 261 km/h.
