Porsche Closes Three Companies and Cuts Jobs
Introduction
Porsche is closing three small companies. More than 500 people will lose their jobs. The company wants to focus on its main business.
Main Body
Porsche is closing Cellforce Group, Porsche eBike Performance, and Cetitec. Porsche will not make its own batteries now. It will buy batteries from other companies instead. CEO Michael Leiters wants to save money. Porsche sold parts of other companies. By 2029, many more workers in Stuttgart will lose their jobs. This happens because Porsche sold fewer cars in America, Europe, and China. Some new electric cars are late because the software is not ready. Now, Porsche will make more cars with gas engines again. They will still make some electric cars, but they are changing their plan.
Conclusion
Porsche is cutting costs. It wants to stop losing money and sell more cars around the world.
