Ferdinand Piech hayatını kaybetti

Alman otomobil üreticisi Volkswagen’in (VW) eski tepe yöneticisi ve Yönetim Kurulu Başkanı Ferdinand Piech 82 yaşında hayatını kaybetti. Porsche’nin kurucusu olan Ferdinand Porsche’nin torunu olan Piech, Porsche, Volkswagen ve Audi’de farklı yönetim kademelerinde görevler aldı. 1993’te VW CEO’su, 2002’de şirketin yönetim kurulu başkanı olan Ferdinand Piech, katı uygulamalarına karşın Volkswagen’i dünyanın en büyük otomotiv üreticisi konumuna getirmeyi başarmıştı.

Kariyerine 1963’te aile şirketi olan Porsche’de başlayan Piech, 1988’de CEO olarak Audi’ye atandı. 1993’te krizle boğuşan VW’ye CEO olarak gelen Piech, özellikle yeni Golf ve Passat modelleri ile markanın satışlarını artırmayı başardı. 2000’lerde yeni model gamını pazara sunan VW, geçmişinde rekabet etmediği yeni sınıflarda otomobillerin üretimine de yöneldi. Markanın kült Beettle modelinin ‘yeni’ üretimi de Piech’in yönetim koltuğunda olduğunda pazara verildi ve tüketicilerden ilgi gördü. 2002’de tepe yöneticiliğini bırakmasına karşın marka üzerindeki etkisini sürdüren Piech’in büyüme stratejisi ile marka, Bentley, Bugatti ve Lamborghini gibi lüks otomobil markalarını da aynı dönemde çatısı altında topladı. Piech 2015’te şirketteki tüm görevlerinden ayrılmıştı.

Ferdinand Piech'in oğlu Toni Piech de İsviçre merkezli firması Piëch Automotive ile Mart’ta kapılarını açan Cenevre Otomobil Fuarı’nda elektrikli süper spor otomobil Mark Zero modeli ile sürpriz yapmıştı.

Is this the electric car breakthrough we’ve been waiting for?

Piech Automotive revealed its Mark One concept at the Geneva motor show.Source:Supplied

Electric cars could receive 400 kilometres of range in less than five minutes through technology revealed at the 2019 Geneva International Motor Show.

The claim comes from Swiss startup Piëch Automotive, a new company founded by industrial designer Rea Stark Rajcic and automotive prince Anton “Toni”…

Piëch Mark Zero Is a 603-HP All-Electric Grand Tourer

A picture I’ve seen of the very first Porsche booth at the 1949 Geneva Motor Show clearly shows Ferry Porsche (Ferdinand’s son) as well as the former’s sister, Louise Porsche. Louise wound up marrying Porsche’s lawyer and business partner, Anton Piëch. You may have heard of one of their sons—Ferdinand—the genius engineer behind things as varied as the Porsche 917, Audi Quattro, the Mercedes five-cylinder inline diesel engine, and the Bugatti Veyron. Famously, Ferdinand has 10—yes, 10—children including one named Anton who goes by Toni, who together with a former lithographer named Rae Stark, has started a new company called Piëch Automotive.

Swiss-based Piëch Automotive debuted a car at this year’s Geneva show called the Mark Zero. It’s an all-electric, all-wheel-drive grand tourer with 603 horsepower from three 201-hp motors—one on the front axle, two on the rear. Thing is, Piëch Auto claims that its new car is “flexible and open,” meaning that an internal-combustion engine of some sort can fit, as well as a hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain.

Back to this electric version. Piëch’s battery partner is a Hong Kong company called Destin Group, and it is claiming that due to a new type of battery cell that produces almost no heat during both charging and discharging, the batteries themselves can be charged rapidly. Eighty percent of the Mark Eight’s 300-mile range can be had in less than five minutes, they say. Moreover, because they don’t get so hot, the batteries can be air-cooled, just like the Porsches Piëch’s grandfather used to make. It’s the sort of battery tech that needs to be seen to be believed—it would mark a major breakthrough—but it does at least sound nice.

The Mark Zero is handsome but in a seen-it-before sort of way. Not derivative, but there’s some Ferrari Daytona, Aston Martin DB9/Vanquish, Jaguar E-Type and F-type, Dodge Viper, the 2004 Ford Shelby Cobra Concept, and even Spyker C8. All are fabulous lookers, but there’s nothing new, nothing groundbreaking about the sheetmetal. Which might be exactly how the Piëch team wants it.

Says Stark, “Most cars today are filled with a lot of high-tech features, and they come installed with these beautiful and impressive display screens. But it is increasingly rare that driving a sports car gives us the feeling of driving a dream car.” In other words, the Mark Zero’s simple yet elegant cabin is a throwback to a more analog time, and to my eyes at least, the body is an homage to dream cars past. In a time when carmakers are openly discussing the day when they’ll begin selling cars without steering wheels, I think the world needs more Mark Zeros. No word on price but cars should be in customers hands by 2022.

New Post has been published on Top Auto Blog

New Post has been published on http://topauto.site/son-of-ferdinand-pieha/

Son of Ferdinand Pieha preparing Porsche 911 competitor under the name Piëch

The German edition Autobild, citing its own sources reports that the Swiss firm Piëch Automotive Group is developing a new coupe, which will be included in the elite pool of supercars. A machine maker named Anton (Tony) Pieh, the son of the Patriarch of Volkswagen of Ferdinand Pieha.

Information about company Piëch Automotive Group in fact. But in April last year — about a year after the forced resignation of Ferdinand Pieha — in Zurich was indeed a registered company Piëch Design AG Phenom with Tony at the helm. According to registration documents, the scope of activity of the vehicle. And on the official website of the company refers to the design, modeling, and building prototypes of supercars for various customers.

However, almost on every page of the website there is a vague image of the same car — a two-door coupé with classic proportions. And even more eloquent than the accompanying texts. For example: “Our heritage — vehicles Porsche 911. But no need to support mass production allows us to make a more perfect machine”.

Not superfluous to recall that Ferdinand Piech, named after his grandfather Ferdinand Porsche and educated mechanical engineer, from 1963 to 1972 I worked at the company Porsche. That is in fact was one of the originators “nine hundred and eleven”. And if Ferdinand Piekha and Tony was really trying to surpass the legendary model, then the chances are — good knowledge, connections and money on such a project the family has enough to spare.

According to the publication Autobild, Switzerland already held a screening of the sketches coupe Piëch certain “elite circle of owners of super cars”. Although the timing of the appearance and characteristics of the future car to say, of course, is too early.
