Thomas Laudenbach

Vice President Porsche Motorsport

Personal take

Appointed to his role in October 2021, Thomas oversees the entire Porsche Motorsport division, from WEC and IMSA to Formula E, GT racing and so much more. He has spent most of his life working in motorsport, joining Porsche in 1998 and returning later after seven years at Audi. Thomas spent many years working in powertrain development, including as the head developer of the trailblazing V8 engine for the Porsche RS Spyder. It was under his watch that Porsche Penske Motorsport and the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team achieved such stellar results in 2024. Despite all this success, he still has a clear goal: Keep on winning races.

I spent many, many years at the racetrack. And now having the job I have, overseeing Porsche Motorsport, I think it's very helpful because I would say I know what I'm talking about. When I come to the racetrack, I know what I have to look at.

* All new vehicles offered by Porsche are type-approved according to WLTP. Official NEDC values derived from WLTP values are no longer available for new vehicles as of 1 January 2023 and can therefore not be provided.

Where values are indicated as ranges, they do not refer to a single, specific vehicle and are not part of the offered product range. They are only for the purposes of comparison between different vehicle tyrpes. Additional equipment and accessories (add-on parts, tyre formats etc.) can change relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics. These factors, in addition to weather, traffic conditions and driving behaviour, can influence the fuel/electricity consumption, CO₂ emissions, range and performance values of a vehicle.

More information about the differences between WLTP and NEDC is available at www.porsche.com/wltp.
