In a bold celebration of heritage, innovation, and design excellence, Porsche and SMEG unveiled a groundbreaking collaboration that redefines the intersection of automotive prestige and home lifestyle.
This partnership brings together two iconic brands-each a symbol of performance, craftsmanship, and timeless style-to create a limited-edition collection of kitchen appliances that speak to the soul of design lovers and automotive enthusiasts alike. The collection consists of the Fridge FAB28 in different design editions, a bean-to-cup coffee machine as well as blenders, kettles and toasters.
Two legacies, one vision.
United by a passion for timeless design, technical mastery, and uncompromising quality, Porsche and SMEG have crafted a unique capsule collection that transcends the ordinary, blending the thrill of the racetrack with the sophistication of modern living.
“At the heart of this collaboration lies a shared philosophy: to craft objects that are not only functional but also emotionally resonant. Porsche, with its legacy of engineering excellence and motorsport triumphs, and SMEG, renowned for its iconic appliances and Italian design flair, have come together to create a collection that is as bold as it is beautiful,” says Stefan Büscher, CEO of Porsche Lifestyle Group.
“At SMEG, we believe in creating products that bring joy through design and performance,” says Vittorio Bertazzoni, Chairman of SMEG. “Collaborating with Porsche has allowed us to push the boundaries of what a kitchen appliance can represent. This collection is a tribute to craftsmanship, to legacy, and to the beauty of everyday rituals.”
Honoring Porsche’s first overall victory at the 24h of Le Mans
The Porsche x SMEG collection is anchored by a limited-edition series inspired by the legendary Porsche 917 KH in its iconic Salzburg livery-the car that secured Porsche’s first overall victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970. The collection includes a striking red fridge and a matching bean-to-cup coffee machine, each limited to 1,970 numbered units. These pieces are more than appliances-they are design statements, infused with motorsport heritage and crafted for those who appreciate the extraordinary.
The collaboration extends into two additional exclusive ranges, finished in Carrara White Metallic and Shade Green Metallic -distinctive Porsche hues interpreted through the lens of Italian design. Featuring a curated suite of SMEG’s most beloved appliances, including the FAB28 fridge, toaster, kettle, and blender, each piece is refined with signature Porsche design cues: matte black accents, subtle striping, and clean, sculptural silhouettes. From the roar of the racetrack to the quiet hum of a morning ritual, Porsche and Smeg deliver a new chapter in functional luxury.
The Porsche x SMEG collection comprises of the following items:
Fridge 917 Salzburg – Porsche x SMEG

The handle design is thoughtfully proportioned to the fridge dimensions to ensure a harmonious design and, as well as the SMEG logo, it is matte black to add character to the aesthetic.
