Porsche 911 Engine Assembly Factory
49Porsche is growing in Zuffenhausen. Since 2011, the area of the plant has more than doubled, from 284,000 to 614,00 square metres, as a result of purchasing the former Layher, Deltona and Daimler sites, among others. By the beginning of 2016, a new engine plant will be built on an area of only 10,000 square metres. In addition there will be a completely new body shop. The plant already has a cutting-edge paint shop, erected at a cost of 200 million euros. The company has also thought of the next generation. At the end of 2013, work started on building the new Training Centre, which was then opened in autumn 2015.
Everything comes together in Zuffenhausen. Craftsmanship and high-tech production, global corporation and responsibility for every single employee, the main plants and the Porsche Museum. The history of the sports car. And its future. For example the Mission E. More than 1,000 new jobs will be created alone in Zuffenhausen for the new electric Porsche which will be launched at the end of this decade. The company is investing about 700 million euros for this at its headquarters – in addition to 800 million euros already earmarked to safeguard the economic future of the site. Among other things this includes a new paint shop and a separate assembly line. There are concrete plans to expand the existing engine plant to produce electric motors and to extend the existing body shop. So in future, Zuffenhausen will remain the centre of the Porsche world.
