If you’re new to the Porsche world, you might have heard it said a few different ways. Is it “Porsche” or “Porscha”? Don’t worry, you’re not the only one who’s wondered!
The Correct Way to Say It
The correct pronunciation is “Por-shuh”—two syllables, not one. It’s a German surname, after all. The “e” at the end isn’t silent, so it gets a gentle “uh” sound.
Where Does “Porscha” Come From?
Some people add an “a” at the end and spell it “Porscha,” probably to reflect how it sounds. Others might say “Porsh,” cutting off the last syllable. Both are very common in the UK, the US, and all around the world.
The important thing is, we all know what you mean! At Ramus Porscha, we named our company to be a bit tongue-in-cheek, celebrating all those who love these cars—no matter how you say it.
Why Does It Matter?
Getting the name right is a lovely detail if you want to sound like a true enthusiast, but don’t let it put you off joining the Porsche community. Whether you say “Porsche,” “Porscha,” or even “Porsh,” you’ll always be welcome here. The passion is what really matters.
Still Unsure?
Next time you pop in for a coffee or a service, just ask us to say it out loud. We promise not to judge!
If you’ve got any more Porsche questions, or even just want to chat about cars, our door is always open. See you soon at Ramus Porscha in West Bromwich.
