Everything comes together in Zuffenhausen. Finest craftsmanship and high-tech production, a global company and responsibility for every single employee, the company’s headquarters and the Porsche Museum. The history of the sports car. And its future. A good example is the Mission E. The new electric Porsche is creating more than 1,000 new jobs in Zuffenhausen alone. The company is investing 700 million euros in its headquarters for this project - in addition to the 800 million euros already set aside to secure the future of the location. The expansion will include a new paint shop and assembly line. The existing engine plant will be scaled up to manufacture electric drives. The existing body shop will also be extended. Zuffenhausen will therefore remain the focal point of the Porsche world in the future.
