They probably have it running on all the cars. Why do all the r&d just for diesel when it could be applied everywhere.

Yeah like Porsche is the only one lying about fuel efficiency claims ? They want to be really careful with this can of worms.

Did anything come of Porsche being implicated in cheating or is it still under investigation for the gasoline engines?
