When talking about Porsche, we will always referring to the man responsible for such great brands in the auto industry. Porsche was originally set up and built by Ferdinand Porsche who was an Australian engineer during Austro Hungarian Empire. Porsche set up the manufacturing plant in 1931 which aimed to develop motor vehicle work and also consultation. At that time, the company wasn’t set up by his name. Later on, the company started to work on auto project for the German government and designed Volkswagen.

During World War II, the company was used by the German government to produce military vehicles. Porsche lost the position as the chairman for the Management Board of Volkswagen. He was then arrested with the accusation of war crimes, but he has never been tried. When he was imprisoned for 20 months, his son – Ferry Porsche – built his own auto design because he couldn’t find any design that went along with his needs.

Ferdinand Porsche History and Cause of the death

When Ferdinand was released, he was still involved in the company’s development until his death day on January e 30^th 1952 because of stroke and several complications.

From that moment, the company was handled by Ferry and his son, Ferdinand Alexander Porsche. Up until now, the name has become one of the most powerful brands in auto business.

The new variant of Fisker Atlantic has been revealed during the New York international auto event and this model is certainly looking very appealing and very nice. The style and the design alone are good enough to make this ride a fashionable yet sporty vehicle.  Not to mention the rumor that this new ride will be much cheaper and more affordable than the Karma variant. It’s certainly a great news, right?

Well, such great design and introduction has to be tweaked a bit with the news that this Fisker model won’t be made at the Delaware manufacturing plant. The original plan was involving the Delaware plant to be the place to build and produce the new variant. But the CEO from the company has mentioned that the entire manufacturing plan has been changed and they’re considering new option and arrangement.

It seems that although Delaware may still be main option for manufacturing, the company has also thought about other options as well. If it turns out that the production is too expensive, they may have to move the manufacturing place; to Finland, if they must. But still, they won’t neglect the Delaware option as they still have to think about various producing strategy and method.
