Some Interesting Facts about Porsche
Founded by Ferdinand Porsche in the year 1931, the company was initially involved in the development work of motor vehicles and consulting. Ferdinand Porsche got a contract in June 1934 to design people’s cars as a result of which he introduced the Volkswagen Beetle. The Volkswagen Beetle is regarded as one of the most successful car designs of all time. In the year 1939, many of the components of Beetle were used to design the Porsche 64.
The first Porsche was put on display in the late 1950’s by Max Hoffman, a U.S. importer, at his showroom in New York City. Hoffman was also the first to test drive the Porsche 356 along Park Avenue.
