How Porsche Owns Volkswagen and Volkswagen Owns Porsche

"...extremely ugly car..."
Every aircooled VW fan on the internet: WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY

is there a sources list?

And people think Porsche is a girls name 😂😂😂

......There is something fascinating about listening to anyone not from germany pronounce such a german word as Volkswagen.
It wasn't badly pronounced mind you, but it'll never be quite right. Too... soft. There need to be some edges.

Otherwise this was really interesting to hear, really^^

This is too complicated i dont gave time for this😂

Peanut butter and …. 😂😂😂😂

They were going to buy Volkswagen to pay off debts they went into for buying Volkswagen. What's so strange about this? It is like I am going to open up a business so I can pay off the debts from the business loans I took to open the business.

Another amazing Austrian that Porsche 😅

VW also owns Ducati and Bougatti

It's not Porsch it's Porsche

Porsche has an "e" on the end which is not silient you are suppose to pronounce it.

WRONG: in 1945 the ownership of Volkswagen was transfered to the British military who ran Volkswagen to stop a cycle of poverty that led to WW2, (because no one wanted a WW3), before giving VW back to the Germans.

WRONG: Volkswagen dates back to before the NAZI's the first prototype of the beetle that looked like a beetle was before the 1933 election that the NAZI's won. And the design work goes back even further to WW1 era.

Isn't Porsche SE's purchase of Volkswagen AG just a standard leveraged buyout?

Also, given that Porsche SE and Porsche AG are two distinct, albeit related, companies, isn't the video title clickbait?

The 356 was more than just VW bits. A lot of it was similar, but there are enough changes to the engine that parts are not interchangeable.

Thank God this video exists because I was tired of sending a screenshot of Porche's webpage explaining this exact thing to the Instagram posts who preach how VW group is the largest automaker owning this this this company bla bla bla you get the idea

Fewer... but never zero

Great content

Fun fact - at one point the People's Republic of Bulgaria owned 8% of VW. Todor Zhivkov, the general secretary was a bit of a celebrity there.

What's porsh?

"...but with fewer Nazis."

Sadly, as we know today, only very slightly fewer. Seriously, apart from that one showy set of trials and people working at the camps directly, it's scary how many very powerful people just... straight-up remained at their post, unbothered. Almost all of them. Explains a lot about early West Germany, and the effects are alarmingly still visible today in a few places.
glances at the intelligence services

You need to be American to call the Beatle “ugly”…

Stop saying Porsch.

Its PoRRRSCHEEEEE

Wow that means that they both own each other😊

The name is Volkswagen, as in Folks-Vagen, not Folks-hagen!
The other name is Porsche, as in Por-ShA, not Porsch!
At least learn how to pronounce things correctly before making a video!

Please stop butchering the name Porsche.
Please americans, at least try.

porschE not porsch

Calling the car Porsh is one thing but calling the guy Porsh is another.
First President of America named Gorg Washton

please expand this to the whole of the Volkswagen Audi Group, it is so fucking cursed

He just called a beetle ugly

It is normal for some types of companies in Europe to own piece of one another.

"....and then Hitler got distracted by Jews existing and no one got a car" Jesus Christ 😂😂😂😂😂

So the TL;DR is Porsche SE has controlling shares (majority ownership) over VW, whilst VW owns Porsche AG.
So the shell company (Porsche SE) owns VW which owns Porsche AG.

wait so do u eat factor every week or do you eat hello fresh daily ? lol

You failed to mention Volkswagen Group

Porsche, not "Porsch".

Business doesn't have to actually make sense. The only important thing is how the money (that isn't real) looks in the spreadsheets.

TL;DR, there's two different versions of Porsche. Porsche the holding company owns Volkswagen the car manufacturer, which owns Porsche the car manufacturer.

My Jetta is a Porsche

This video was too short.. like that was it? Channel name checks out I guess 😂

PorschEEE, not Porsch :D

its pronounced "porsh-uh"

The pronunciation of Porsche makes me sick

I'm gonna rewatch and see how many times they pronounce his name wrong... 20 TIMES AND NOT ONCE SAID CORRECTLY in not being a Karen here, it's called correct pronunciation and sorry to be a geek, but I'm also a car nerd and enthusiast, anyone who really loves cars and knows everything about them knows you pronounce Porsche the way the Germans do, any German watching this will be mad cause it's not being pronounced correctly

I'm gonna rewatch and see how many times they pronounce his name wrong
