Porsche executives are not affected, and VW executives will no longer have Porsche company cars
Apparently, until now, Volkswagen's senior executives have been given company cars such as Porsches (top management was given two cars of their choice as company cars), but from now on, these ``company Porsches'' will be eliminated as part of cost-cutting measures across the group.
A VW spokesperson confirmed this fact to German newspaper Bild, saying: "In order to optimise costs, it is no longer possible to order company cars from Porsche."
The decision to do away with Porsche company cars will reportedly affect more than 200 senior employees at the VW Group in Wolfsburg, potentially saving millions of dollars a year.
By the way, Porsche executives (including Oliver Blume, who also serves as the head of VW) will continue to have the privilege of using Porsches as company cars.
As a Porsche executive, it is important for him to actually experience and get to know the company's cars, and experiencing the Porsche brand can also be considered part of his job, so this makes sense.
Managers who received notice that they would no longer be provided with Porsches as company cars were apparently quite unhappy with the decision, and according to Bild, a lawsuit against the Porsche ban has been filed at the Braunschweig Labor Court.
VW is said to be saying that "VW's top executives who really want to drive Porsches can even afford to buy them for themselves."
