Germany's Federal Motor Transport Authority is investigating
Porsche AG to confirm whether its vehicles conform with European
Union regulations on vehicle parts and emissions, the authority
said on Monday.
Porsche, the sports car brand owned by the Volkswagen AG group,
said the investigation started after the company brought a series
of issues to the attention of regulators. It declined to comment on
the specific subject of the investigation.
Porsche also said that the issues it raised with regulators
centered around the use of hardware and software in its vehicles'
certification testing phase that may have been different to the
components used on series vehicles.
A spokesman for the German Motor Transport Authority, or KBA,
said he couldn't provide a timeline for the investigation or say
when more information would be released. The KBA is focusing its
investigation on vehicles that were produced up until 2017 for the
European market, he said.
Porsche said there is no evidence that vehicles from current
production are affected by the investigation.
