Porsche History
The Beginning
1940s: In 1948, the Porsche brand in Gmünd (Austria) arrived on the scene and introduced the world to Porsche’s type 356 "No. 1" Roadster. Porsche immediately gained worldwide attention after its class victory with its further enhanced 356 SL at the 24h of Le Mans.
1950s: From 1953 onwards, Porsche’s next innovation was the 550 Spyder, an instant classic with a mid-engine specifically designed for motorsport and saw spectacular success. The 10,000th Porsche 356 was produced eight years after the Typ 356 "No. 1" Roadster came out.
60s - 70s
1960s: The Porsche 804 won the French Grand Prix; the 50,000th Porsche was built in 1962. A year later, Porsche introduced the legendary 911, a fastback coupé with a 2+2 seating arrangement and a two-litre, 6-cylinder 130 hp flat-six engine at the rear.
1970s: The 917 Short-Tail Coupé won at Le Mans and the first 911 Turbo was created. The 911 Turbo was the world’s first production sports car with an exhaust turbocharger and pressure regulator.
80s - 90s
1980s: The Porsche 944, which had 163 hp and a 4-cylinder engine, was released, and Porsche celebrated the 25th anniversary year of the 911 by introducing the newly developed 911 Carrera 4 with all-wheel drive.
1990s: The first twin-turbo engine in a 911 was released, and the 1 millionth Porsche rolled off the assembly line.
2000s - Today
2000s: Porsche displayed the high-performance Carrera GT sports car at The Louvre in Paris. In 2002, the Porsche Cayenne, a sporty, off-road Cayenne SUV, was introduced.
