Along with leading German designers, the progenitors of the car Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler, a huge role in the development of Motor-automotive and played Ferdinand Porsche, founded in 1931 by the same company for the production of engines and sports cars. Today I bring you to the museum of the legendary producer, located at the headquarters in Stuttgart. Nowhere in the world, in addition to the museum, you will not find more extensive information about the thoroughbred Porsche brand.
The 25-year-old passion for technology young engineer Ferdinand Porsche created the world's first front-wheel drive hybrid vehicle, which in 1900 was presented at the Paris World Exhibition. "Lohner-Porsche" has gasoline engine and two electric motors placed in the front wheel hub.

The 30-year-old Ferdinand Porsche became technical director and chief designer of the Vienna Austro-Daimler, a little later, and the chief engineer of Daimler AG in Stuttgart.

In 1931 Porsche founded his design office in Stuttgart, and by tradition called it by its name - Limited Liability Company "honorary" Doctor of Engineering Ferdinand Porsche (German Dr. Ing. Hc F. Porsche GmbH). The degree of "honorary" doctorate who had no higher education Porsche was awarded the Vienna University of Technology for the development of military technology during World War II.
Under the direction of the Porsche was created by a large number of legendary cars. He was the creator of the most popular car of the 20th century the Volkswagen "Beetle" is essentially an instrument of Nazi policy. In his prototype, and on its basis in the future was the first car built by Porsche.

According to some sources it was Ferdinand Porsche offered Hitler the idea of people's car. Like Hugo Boss, which I wrote in the record [url=http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dgavailer.livejournal%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26hs%3DIkk%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US fficial%26prmd%3Dimvns&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=ru&twu=1&u=http://gavailer.livejournal.com/184463.html&usg=ALkJrhgQS7WdlD6g-QjFfL18T6OWG-3Z0Q]Metzingen - a city outlet[/url] , Porsche could not ignore the Fuhrer and was tied in brown policies. Experience in the development of military equipment "useful" and helped to advance in World War II.

Still I'll be back to the car manufacturing. The first race unit (Model 64) with a sleek, unique design and powerful engine, which later became a sign of the quality of the Porsche was introduced in 1939.

However, the very first car, which received the name of the grandparent company, became the model 356 - Porsche 356 Nr. 1 Roadster, already developed in the postwar period his son Ferry Porsche (Ferdinand "Ferry" Anton Ernst Porsche).
