Porsche 356 Sales & Production Numbers

Porsche 356 Production & Chassis Numbers (1950 – 1965)

The evolution of the 356 was constant throughout its production history. Changes were introduced in the middle of a model year, necessitating inspection of the manufacturing year as well as the sales model year to really understand the total production numbers. This analysis therefore is directionally correct, but I would take it with a grain of salt that it took a lot of manual work and isn’t perfect. 

The 15 year production period ranged from Early 1950 until September 1965. The Coupe and the Cabriolet were build during the from the beginning to the end, the Speedster was apart of the product line from September 1954 until August 1958, it was replaced by the Convertible D from August 1958 until September 1559, which was then substituted by the Roadster until September 1961, from Spring 1961 the hardtop Coupe was available until Fall 1961.
