Porsche SUV The World Best Car

Founded by Ferdinand Porsche, the first car to bear the now famous Porsche name was the 356; then just one month later this light mid-engined sports car wins its class victory at Innsbruck Stadtrennen. Exciting beginnings for an exciting marquee! Despite the credit crunch this year, Porsche has just celebrated it’s most successful financial year in its history with pre-tax profits of 8.5 billion Euros. Porsche is obviously most famous for its sports coupes such as the Boxter, Cayman and iconic 911. However Porsche’s foray into the SUV market with the Cayenne is equally important and has played a large part in the recent financial success. Porsche is a small manufacturer when compared to giants like Ford or GM, never the less, this small company is shocked many industry experts this year by buying a controlling interest in the Volkswagen group. Porsche is bucking the general automotive trend of downsizing and actually expanding its interests. Porsche offers a generous 4 year / 50,000 miles warranty on all its new vehicles and has a reputation for building cars that last. The Porsche 911 was famous for being a supercar that could be used for the daily commute for years on end without major problems, when other high performance supercars of the time were renowned for being “temperamental”.
