On this Company episode of The Synopsis we cover Porsche AG. Porsche is a brand that has tried to become "luxury at scale" with over 300k units produced annually versus undisputed luxury car brands who produce closer to ~10k. While their strategy might have diluted their brand, they still enjoy superior positioning compared to most premium car manufacturs like BMW and Mercedes-Benz. 

Listen to this episiode to learn not just about Porsche's history and business model, but also about the car industry and different car manufacturer's strategies.
