Porsche AG is expecting a dip in sales after consumers pulled forward purchases earlier this year to beat US President Donald Trump’s auto tariffs.

Drivers rushed to buy vehicles to get ahead of the duties, Porsche’s procurement chief Barbara Frenkel said Tuesday. The German manufacturer is one of the carmakers most exposed to the levies because it lacks a factory in the US.
