Since this year, top managers at Volkswagen have had to do without Porsche models as company cars. This change affects 200 senior employees. Meanwhile, lawsuits have already been filed at the labor court.

Since the beginning of this year, it is no longer possible to order a Porsche as a company car, a Volkswagen spokesperson said on Sunday following a report in the Bild newspaper. Since then, the regulation has been handled in the same way. The background is the money: "It is actually a cost saving." According to dpa information, around 200 senior employees are affected.

Rare privilege
According to "Bild", the privilege of a Porsche sports car as a company car will therefore only be available to Porsche managers and Group board members. According to the report, however, there are already lawsuits at the labor court in Braunschweig against the Porsche "ban".

Efficiency and savings program
The Volkswagen Group, which includes Porsche and many other car brands such as VW, Skoda and Seat, recently launched an efficiency and savings program. According to previous information, it is expected to improve earnings by four billion euros this year, seven billion euros in 2025 and ten billion euros per year from 2026. However, the spokesperson did not say how high the savings from the Porsche ban would be.
