"Porsche and the VW main brand see things differently when it comes to efuel...Porsche has a different agenda and is trying to save the internal combustion engine by offering a zero-emission ICE alternative to battery-powered EVs.

Thomas Schafer stated "Why spend a fortune on old technology [ICE running on efuel] that doesn't really give you any benefit?"
