ABOUT PORSCHE Ferdinand and Ferry Porsche had visions. But they always kept their feet firmly on the ground. That is how they made imagination and reliability a reality. Decades of stability are an invaluable asset for any company. If the name of Porsche carries a commitment, so do the values it embodies. Above all we see that commitment as being spiritual mobility. It is a heritage in keeping with the times; one which Porsche and its staff must live up to every day. A company with a past like ours has to keep one eye on the future at all times. Our company thinks and plans with one thought uppermost in its mind: Back to the future. (Following is a timeline, documenting the development of Porsche in the US and abroad): 1900: The Lohner-Porsche Electric Car at the Paris Expo. The wheel hub motors devised by Ferdinand Porsche, then a young engineer and test driver, made the name Porsche famous worldwide. 1928: As Daimler Technical Director and Board member, among other things, F.
