    This podcast episode is about nostalgia, passion, and community spirit. In short: "Luftgekühlt" - not only a characteristic of an engine, but also a happening in Los Angeles that brings the Porsche community together. Patrick Long, founder of this event, Porsche factory driver and Le Mans winner, is the guest in this episode. Host Sebastian Rudolph talks to him about his motives for "Luftgekühlt," racing successes, and the relationship between Porsche and the USA.

  • The GT legend: road cars with racing credentials

    The GT legend: road cars with racing credentials
    Mar 11 2021
    Only very special Porsche vehicles get to feature ‘GT’ in their name. The abbreviation generally stands for ‘gran turismo’ and can loosely be translated as ‘great ride’ but at Porsche, the two letters also mean something else – racing with road approval. In episode 2 of the podcast, Frank-Steffen Walliser – the man responsible for the 911 and 718 model series, including the GT cars – and former racing driver and Porsche brand ambassador Mark Webber get to the bottom of the GT legend.

    Brands: Being successful and staying at the top
    Nov 26 2020
    In episode 1 of The Porsche Podcast we talk about brands. Some of them we even take for granted in our use of language. If you search for something on the Internet, you "Google" – and the top model of a product range is often described as “the Porsche” of its class. How does this happen? What makes for successful branding? Our guests: Maria Sharapova, entrepreneur and exceptional tennis player, and Detlev von Platen, member of the Executive Board Sales and Marketing at Porsche.
