A look at the 70-year history of the Porsche brand in Australia.
It’s a big year for Porsche - the first vehicle to bear the Porsche name was registered on June 8 1948: it was the 356 "No 1" roadster. The history of the brand begins in 1948. Yet the foundation of the sports car manufacturer is built on the life’s work of Prof Ferdinand Porsche - work which his son Ferry continued.Ferdinand Porsche had already designed pioneering innovations for the automotive industry as early as the start of the previous century. In 1900, he built an electric car with a wheel-hub drive, the Lohner-Porsche, on which he would base the world’s first all-wheel drive passenger car.The future of Porsche sports cars is coming up to the starting line in the form of the Mission E, the first purely electrically driven technology champion from Zuffenhausen.

On the occasion of "70 Years of Porsche Sports Cars", the Sound Night took place this year in the Stuttgart Porsche Arena. "The Porsche Arena is exactly the right setting for the 70th anniversary of our sports cars," stresses Le Mans winner Marc Lieb.
