Porsche To Show 111-Year-Old Hybrid In Geneva

Porsche AG will show a version of the Semper Vivus, a hybrid car developed by company founder Dr. Ferdinand Porsche in 1900, at next week’s Geneva Motor Show. Porsches says it worked for four years at its Porsche Museum in Stuttgart to recreate the car.

The appearance of Semper Vivus (meaning “always alive”) at the show is meant to reflect what Porsche calls its “lengthy dedication to ground-breaking hybrid technology.” It coincides with the recent announcement that Porsche will build a hybrid version of its Panamera sedan to join its hybrid Cayenne SUV in the lineup.
