Which car brand makes the most money on a single car sold?
Did you know that Porsche has to sell 176 cars to achieve the same profit that Ferrari makes by selling a single vehicle? The comparison between Ferrari and mainstream carmakers is even more staggering - for instance, Mazda must sell 3,498 vehicles to reach the profit of one sold Ferrari.
Ferrari has long relied on its exclusivity and charges accordingly. Last year, it earned €223,680 on every car sold. Interestingly, Tesla, which many predicted would soon go bankrupt, finished in third place with a profit of €5,859 per vehicle sold. And how are the other carmakers doing?
