Porsche, a German automaker specializing in luxury vehicles, including high-end sports cars, was founded in 1931. Credited with inventing the first fully electric car at the 1912 Paris World Expedition, the vehicle was powered by lead acid batteries. To date, the company’s most popular car is the Porsche 911, a high-performance sports car.
