Name origin	The brand name Apollo comes from the Gumpert Apollo, the car developed by Roland Gumpert. The sources used here do not explain why the name was chosen, so no meaning is claimed. After the 2016 purchase, the company itself took the name Apollo Automobil.	The company carries the surname of its founder, Ferdinand Porsche. The formal name Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche is short for his full title in German, Doktor-Ingenieur honoris causa, an honorary doctorate in engineering.
