Description
In September 1963,the 901 was presented at the IAA in Frankfurt as a successor to the Porsche 356. Series production of the 901 began in September 1964. When presented at the Paris Motor Show in October of that year, the French car manufacturer Peugeot objected to the model designation. The reason: Peugeot had patented a three-digit type designation with a zero in the middle.
Porsche therefore renamed the 901 as the 911. 82 units of the 901 were produced before the name change.
