Porsche 356 — Pre-A (1948–1955)

The beginning of the Porsche story.

Lightweight construction, an air-cooled flat-four engine and functional, uncluttered design defined the earliest models. Built with simplicity and balance in mind, the 356 Pre-A established the engineering philosophy that would shape every Porsche that followed.

Available as Coupé, Cabriolet and Speedster, it evolved quickly from a small sports car into a distinctive and internationally recognised marque.
