Dossier: Identity

Porsche stands for engineering artistry, iconic design, and technical innovation. The brand identity is derived from a rich history that is not just about the past – it is a living heritage. An ongoing memory that continues to advance. At Porsche, heritage does not mean looking back nostalgically, but rather indicates a promise for the future: Core values are preserved and continued with each new model and each technological innovation. 150 years after the birth of company founder Ferdinand Porsche, Christophorus looks back on the origins of the Porsche DNA – and reveals how it is still alive today.

Origin as a Foundation

In Iceland, the Porsche Heritage Experience has found the perfect stage for its mission, which is to experience the past and shape the future. Accompanied by Icelander Rúrik Gíslason, Christophorus delves into Icelandic traditions and explores the Porsche cosmos in various generations of the 911 Targa – in celebration of its 60th anniversary.

Tradition and Vision

A young Ferdinand Porsche was quick to begin working on a hybrid powertrain, combining the best of both electric and combustion engine worlds. More than 100 years after the company founder’s work, Porsche engineers are successfully continuing his hybrid idea in various ways.

Continuity as a Principle

Around the turn of the twentieth century, engineer Ferdinand Porsche established a technological and entrepreneurial philosophy that is still consistently pursued to this day. The company owes its long-term success to staying true to its origins.

Optimal Testing

Porsche exclusively used digital testing for the all-electric Cayenne until the preproduction vehicles were available. However, the human factor remains essential: In the final test-drives, the drivers pushed the SUV to its limits – in icy cold and blistering heat.
