Peter Vogel has been named CEO of Porsche Brazil beginning September 1, succeeding Andreas Marquardt, who moves to a new role within Porsche AG.

Currently director of network development and customer/prospect management (CPM) at Porsche Middle East and Africa FZE, Vogel has served in several leadership roles at various Porsche subsidiary businesses, including vice president of network management and development for Porsche China, and director of after sales at Porsche Ibérica.

“In Peter Vogel, we have found an acknowledged expert in Porsche’s international sales landscape to lead our efforts in the up-and-coming Brazilian market,” says Detlev von Platen, member of the executive board for sales and marketing at Porsche AG.

In the last five years, sales of Porsche Brazil have almost tripled. The two bestselling models have been the Porsche 911 and the Macan.
