Porsche, a luxury automobile manufacturing firm has launched its third generation Cayenne in Accra.

The firm says while it seeks to inculcate the feeling of the Porsche brand in the minds of Ghanaians, it is also looking at contributing more to the economy.

The Chief Executive of Porsche Centre Ghana, Subhi Accad, said, “When it comes to cars, it’s very important to look at the cars made for countries so for Porsche, it’s very important, for example, those cars that you see here, they are cars that are manufactured for Ghana and Africa; they are different from the ones that are imported from the States.”

The arrival of the brand’s flagship SUV was celebrated at a special event held by Porsche Centre Ghana, Universal Motors Ltd., where the Cayenne was showcased to attending guests, including, the Minister for Trade and Industry, Alan Kyeremateng who was the special guest of honour.
