In the wake of dieselgate and the possible contamination of the 3.0 V6 powertrains Porsche North America decided the sales of the Cayenne Diesel to cease.

With a nice and short statement to let the American branch of the German manufacturer to know the following:

Porsche Cars North America, Inc. today decided, in view of the unexpected U. S. EPA notice received yesterday, to voluntarily discontinuing sales of model year 2014 through 2016 Porsche Cayenne Diesel vehicles until further notice. We are working intensively to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Customers may continue to operate their vehicles normally.

Now the result of this step cannot be overestimated: although Porsche in the USA, huge lot of Cayennes you sell them, the vast majority of them equipped with a big petrol V8 or V6. The until further notice to suspend the sale will, therefore, not a huge dent in the dealer network save.

Macan

Nevertheless, the manufacturer from Zuffenhausen ever in calmer waters seated: it must also already 60.000 Macans recall, of which 317 in the Netherlands, and now it seems also in the vortex that dieselgate is called to be sucked. If they’re only 911 messages were to continue to produce, they had this whining now is not, but I’m guessing that the explosive expansion of the group in the last few years under the mark still more pros than cons.
