So long Porsche diesel, it’s been fun
I posted the following link buried in another diesel related thread, but given the amount of diesel chatter here on the forum, I felt it deserved a thread of it’s own so potentially more people see it and can discuss it...

My wife has a 2014 Panamera S e-hybrid, and it has had it's share of electric troubles. I think it's about to go in for its fifth issue regarding electric mode failing to work. I am not surprised diesel is being abandoned. Electric is the current flavor for so many cars.

Lets see, take a powertrain that pushes along heavy vehicles at amazing speeds, sips fuel, is very reliable, refuels in minutes and can cross a continent on three tanks of fuel and then abandon it. This is a political decision, not a product plan.
