Just days after reporting that Porsche had plans to introduce the Pajun, a competitor for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class that would slot just below the Panamera, Automotive News quoted Porsche CEO Matthias Mueller saying the Pajun was not a done deal but could become reality in five or six years.
Automotive News was referencing an interview Mueller gave to German newspaper Stuttgarter Zeitung, in which he also says the company has no plans for an entry-level Porsche below the Boxster until at least 2014.
“We would do no good to the brand if we were to lose traditional Porsche customers,” Mueller told the newspaper. In another interview with German business publication Wirtschaftswoche, Mueller said, “Possibly we need to wait until the next generation of customers before the idea of a small roadster will work for Porsche.”
