they don’t need to make bespoke Porsche EV platforms because SSP Sport is their own modification of the SSP, similar to PPE and PPE Sport in the Cayenne (or whatever the name is).

this is good for granular vehicle control as Porsche can tweak what they want from the platform and it keeps all of VAGs software in line with one another

Cannot compare!

Cars really age! Watches don't.

How do you drive a Porsche ICE from 2000 in 2050, when
1. all gas stations have long disappeard
2. all driving is done by AI and you are strictly forbidden to touch a steering wheel?

I’d hate for this to be a reality

Basically no more dedicated porsche platform for EVs even beyond 2030

Because everyone is following the SSP structure in VAG group. Porsche will have SSP Sport, Audi will use a tuned down version of it and a Skoda will have SSP-Mini or something.

It’s not happening anymore based on what Blume said in the investor meeting.

The only 4 door porsche sedan will be the panamera continuing forward, ICE & Hybrid.

He didn’t say that

Sounds to me like instead of a J2 it'll be a J1.3, J1.4 and on until they decide to invest properly again

Porsche won’t do J2. Next is either PPE, or SSP.

Why isn’t anyone looking at the (obvious) long term?
The solution could be something like a battery-as-a-service warranty.
At least keep updating, producing spare parts, and recycle as much as possible.
Advertise that your brand has the solution of running an EV longtime.
Take away the fear, so private buyers will be buying (second hand) EV’s.

There you go, the beginning of the solution: Starting in 2026, owners will have choices to protect high-voltage batteries for more years. The update will use a subscription model, so owners can pay each month and keep coverage going after the original warranty ends.

Well done Tesla. Hopefully others will step up as well.

Don’t recall tesla having shittier battery policy than Porsche or less reliable batteries or more hardware recalls for the batteries.

So maybe add the extra context, because as far as news go, there is nothing pointing at Tesla scamming customers with batteries recalls and issues - which can’t be said about porsche for example (marking arb6/7 recall afected batteries as “aged”)

The entire company of Tesla is one huge fine print. Tesla makes great cars I agree but they have issues as well

Well, give example. I am not familiar with the fine prints of tesla.

General statements are well and nice, but concrete examples are better.

I can give you several for porsche.
- you pay for warranty so they repair your car with OEM parts, but for 22kw charger they downgrade you to 11kw now.

- our batteries have a hardware defect from manufcaturing, that can worsen and compromise the battery. So we release a software that marks the battery as broken and “aged” , and we put it in the warranty that “aged” is not covered anymore

- ah your j1.1 windshield with blacked sun strip at the top you paid for cracked? We’ll sell you a new one, but without the blacked sun strip sun strip at the top.

Fine prints, no?
