The diverse Porsche lineup comprises the 718, 911, Panamera, Macan, Cayenne, and Taycan. The company traces its roots back to the 1930s when Ferdinand Porsche, a Czech-German automotive engineer, founded Porsche in collaboration with Adolf Rosenberger and Anton Piëch.

Following World War II, Ferry Porsche, the son of Ferdinand Porsche, initiated the production of the iconic Porsche 356. In 2009, Porsche entered into an agreement with Volkswagen, leading to the formation of an integrated working group through the merger of their car manufacturing operations. By 2015, Porsche SE, the holding company derived from the original Porsche firm, gained a controlling interest in the Volkswagen Group, encompassing subsidiaries such as Audi and Lamborghini. The brand's legacy is characterized by a commitment to precision engineering, performance, and a rich heritage in the automotive industry.
