Porsche considers North America, China production to grow sales

Porsche may launch production in North America and China as part of a plan to double annual global sales to 200,000 units, CEO Matthias Mueller said.

"We will consider this year whether to start production in Asia or North America," Mueller told the German magazine Focus in an interview published Monday.
