Porsche scraps electric flagship SUV launch after 99% profit collapse—V8 debuts in its largest vehicle ever

Porsche announced an 80% electric lineup by 2030, but its flagship K1 SUV will launch with a V8 instead of a battery pack.

Safety investigators later linked hundreds of crashes to Tesla driver assistance systems. A federal jury verdict of $243 million forced a new legal debate about responsibility when automated features fail during real driving. The ruling now shapes how courts, insurers, and regulators examine automation claims. The chain of events begins with the name itself.
