While Ferdinand Porsche was responsible for many vehicles, the first car to bear his name was the 356, designed by his son Ferry Porsche and long time associate Karl Rabbe, and was first produced by Austrian company, Porsche Konstruktionen GesmbH (1948–1949), and then by German company Dr. Ing. h. c. F. Porsche GmbH (1950–1965). From the earliest, 1,100 cc Gmünd beginnings, the overall shape of the 356 remained more or less set. In 1951, 1,300 and 1,500 cc engines with considerably more power were introduced. In April 1952 the split windscreen was replaced by a slightly V-shaped, single windshield, which fit into the same shape opening. In 1953, the 1300 S or Super was introduced and the 1,100 cc engine was dropped. In late 1955, with numerous small but significant changes, the 356 A was introduced replacing the original 356.
