Porsche also exposed the exhaust scandal. German manufacturing is no longer trusted.

I believe that friends who like cars have already known about Volkswagen's "emissions scandal". Although compensation plans are already underway, the incident is far from over. Recently, after Volkswagen's "emissions scandal", Porsche has fallen into the same dilemma. According to foreign media reports, German regulators are currently investigating whether Porsche manipulated vehicle fuel efficiency data, which may add a new chapter to the Volkswagen Group's emissions scandal.Germany's transport authority and the Federal Motor Transport Authority said on December 8 local time that they are investigating whether Porsche installed illegal software on its vehicles to change the vehicle's fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions data. German magazine WirtschaftsWoche reported that an insider disclosed the matter to the German Transport Authority. According to the report, some Porsche models can detect whether the vehicle is in a test environment based on the movement of the steering wheel. The German government has begun investigating Porsche, similar to the Audi investigation. A Porsche spokesman said the vehicle's fuel consumption and emissions are in compliance with regulations. Although Porsche has publicly denied the rumor, if it is found that there is a real problem, it will probably cost the company a lot of money if it doesn't die. Such scandals are not only extremely harmful to the company itself, but also indirectly damage the reputation of other German automobile groups and the image of the entire German industry. The reputation of the German industrial brand "Made in Germany" has been tarnished. It is reported that the tailpipe scandal has shaken the foundation of German business and politics, and the threat to the German economy may be greater than the Greek crisis. If the Porsche incident comes true, not only will the stock prices of automakers fall sharply, but the "clean diesel car" strategy promoted by German automakers may also be questioned due to the scandal. Compared with gasoline engines, diesel engines have better fuel economy. In order to balance fuel economy and environmental protection, German automakers such as Volkswagen, Daimler, and BMW have vigorously developed clean diesel technology and used it as one of the magic weapons to compete with Japanese automakers in the North American market. German brand diesel cars have a market share of 53% in Western Europe. "Made in Germany is about quality and trust, and now the trust is gone. No one could have imagined this scale, and the damage to German industry will last. This is just the tip of the iceberg."
