“Dreams Are Our Biggest Driving Force”

29 September 2022 is a historic day for the sports car manufacturer from Zuffenhausen: Porsche is going public. In this Christophorus interview, CEO Oliver Blume and CFO Lutz Meschke provide insights into the future of the brand.

Icons of Tomorrow

Numerous technical details were specially developed for it: the Porsche 963. And so this top player of the coming LMDh season is like a finger pointing from the future.

Birth of a Quality Seal

Today, the Porsche crest is one of the most popular trademarks in the world. Since 1952, it has adorned every sports car from Zuffenhausen. But how did the idea for it come about? The traces lead back to New York City in the early 1950s.

The calm before the jump:

Call of the Wind

Kitesurfing is both an extreme sport and a source of energy. Nowhere in Europe can it be experienced as intensively as in Tarifa in Spain. An encounter with the wind and the waves – and two superstars of the international kitesurfing scene.

Hidden Treasures

Archaeological exhibits and architectural finesse – the parking garage by Zurich’s opera house is a modern museum – but also tells a story that is more than 5,000 years old. We join the car park attendant on the night shift in his underground workplace.

He is both a neurosurgeon and an artist, but the Korean Ha Yoon above all combines the two. The result of his creativity is mind maps – in the true meaning of the word. Images from the depths of our conscious minds.

Welcome to the Club

The most recent project of the largest Porsche Club in the world was the result of intercontinental exchange: it is a one-off composition of choice ingredients from different generations of the Porsche 911.

Number 5006 Is Alive

The car was considered lost without a trace for almost 60 years until a mysterious call was received. Two collectors had come across the oldest Porsche 356 produced in Germany to still exist. And how they salvaged it is a story fit for the big screen.

Sense of Time

The paths of Porsche and TAG Heuer have been crossing for over half a century. A shared culture connects the companies. CEO Frédéric Arnault transfers values into the present and future.

“I’m Extremely Sensitive”

Because he’s turned off by all of the attention, he once even avoided the third World Rally Championship. Nonetheless, we’d like to take this opportunity to wish him happy birthday – he turns 75 on March 7. In Leipzig, a city that’s special to him.

Virtual Vision

With the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo, the design team looks to the distant future. The study was initiated for the Gran Turismo 7 racing game. But as is typical of Porsche, a real model of the gaming vehicle was built in Weissach.

It didn’t even have its striking shell yet when development engineer and race-car driver Lars Kern started testing the future: the technology of the Mission R.

With the pioneering drive of the Porsche Taycan, Zuffenhausen continues its tradition of innovation. This is how electric motors work in detail.

Crystal Clear

The entrepreneur Silvio Denz is preparing a grand celebration: Lalique’s one hundredth anniversary. A journey through the eras of glass art in Alsace. The clarity of the material fits the nature of the man.

Timmelsjoch

The Timmelsjoch is not the fastest route over the Alpine divide—but it’s certainly one of the most beautiful. A road that’s a pleasure to drive, inviting travelers to stop along the way.

Father and Son

Four originals: Dr. Wolfgang Porsche, his son Ferdinand, and two Porsche 550 Spyders on the Großglockner High Alpine Road. The mountain figures prominently in family lore.

Heart’s Content

Every Porsche has the same origin: the Development Center in Weissach. A glimpse into the secret spaces of the grounds, which stretch roughly one hundred hectares.

Experiencing Culture in Yunnan

Artfully arranged rice terraces, a variety of traditions,and a bustling metropolis at over 2,000 meters: the Porsche Museum sends historical vehicles on a fascinating journey to southwestern China.

Printer-ready

Pistons are among the most heavily strained components of an engine. Porsche has now produced the first pistons using 3-D printing technology, and they’re intended for the high-performance engine of the wildest 911.

@Lara’s World—The Porsche Girl
