Porsche stands for dynamism, agility and flexibility; as well as speed, elegance and safety. And, of course, quality. Our philosophy is to develop compact, high-performance engines that produce outstanding power. We then create performance cars that are able to transfer this power to the road effectively, in the process applying all the knowledge and experience we have gained from motorsport. Because that is precisely what our customers expect.
The fact that our specifications for new and ongoing developments include clear objectives relating to the environment is no contradiction. Quite the opposite. At Porsche, increasing performance goes hand in hand with reducing fuel consumption. We are continually optimising vehicle aerodynamics, which has a positive impact on both fuel consumption and performance. For the same reason, we put a great deal of effort into reducing vehicle weight. What is more, we regularly optimise fuel consumption by way of technical innovation – all part of delivering pure performance.
This is how, with our existing vehicle range – in relation to engine power output – we are already among those manufacturers achieving the lowest CO2 emissions.

Reduction in pollutants within the German automotive industryOf course, we want to go further. The aim is to reduce fuel consumption – and thereby CO2 emissions – much further in the next few years. To do this, we deploy innovative technology. Porsche technology. Just as successfully as in the past.
