Ferdinand Porsche gave the world the first gasoline-electric engine and worked for several automakers, while his son Ferry designed the first Porsche sports car, the 356, in the 1940s. Ferry then introduced the iconic 911 model in 1963, which has sold over a quarter million units. Today, Porsche produces high-end models like the 911, Boxster, Cayman, Cayenne SUV, and Panamera at its Stuttgart factory. The company remains dedicated to Ferry Porsche's legacy of fine engineering and design.
