Porsche has routinely broken its own yearly sales record for the last decade, ever since the Macan got traction as one of the best affordable luxury SUVs. The Porsche 911 has also done some of the heavy lifting, being the brand’s flagship, of course. But just recently, Q1 sales came back and reported that the Taycan, an all-electric vehicle, sold 9,071 units, coming within 61 units of beating the 911.
The times are a changin’.

Few things bring out more anger, happiness, and rivalry in people than sports. And after the conclusion of this year’s NCAA March Madness tournament, it’s fair to assume there were millions of people both thrilled and disappointed about the Baylor Bears’ win over the Gonzaga Bulldogs in the 2021 final.
Porsche got involved in the March Madness spirit as well, not by making any basketball brackets or endorsements, but by creating a tournament of their own. The Porsche Tournament of Colors began in March as an ode to the famous basketball competition, but it featured a full bracket of Porsche paint colors that followers of the brand’s Twitter could vote on, and hope that their favorite colors could go all the way.
