Porsche will be taking advantage of the Geneva Motor Show to exhibit a 111 year old gem of a car. After four years of intense efforts, the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Germany, has managed to recreate the Semper Vivus, latin for “always alive”.

Visitors will get to admire an important piece of automotive history created by Ferdinand Porsche, founder of the famous brand, alongside modern and technologically advanced hybrids such as the Porsche Cayenne S, Panamera and 918 RSR.

After Switzerland, the Semper Vivus will be heading back to the Porsche Museum, where it will be featured in a few exhibits.
