Porsche Automobil Holding SE operates as a strategic investment and holding company focused on the global automotive industry. Headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany, the company maintains a controlling interest in Volkswagen AG, one of the world’s largest automakers. Through this stake, Porsche SE is indirectly involved in the design, manufacture and distribution of passenger cars, commercial vehicles and related mobility services under renowned brands that include Volkswagen, Audi, Škoda, SEAT and Porsche.
In addition to its core holding in Volkswagen AG, Porsche SE pursues minority investments in technology and mobility enterprises that complement its automotive activities. These holdings span areas such as electric vehicle infrastructure, autonomous driving systems, digital services and sustainable materials. By diversifying its portfolio, the company aims to capture emerging trends and support innovation across the broader mobility ecosystem.
Established through a transformation of the original sports car manufacturer in 2007, Porsche SE traces its roots back to the late 1930s when Ferdinand Porsche founded the design office that would later evolve into today’s luxury and performance car business. The holding company emerged from a series of corporate restructurings and a landmark integration with Volkswagen AG, culminating in a decisive management and ownership structure that balances family influence with professional governance.
The company is governed by a Management Board responsible for day-to-day operations and supervised by a Board of Directors chaired by a representative of the Porsche and Piëch families. Porsche SE’s investments and governance oversight extend across Europe, North America, Asia and other global markets, reflecting its commitment to supporting long-term value creation in the automotive sector and adjacent industries.
