German prosecutors in Stuttgart have opened a preliminary enquiry to determine whether employees at Porsche AG were involved in parent company Volkswagen Group’s diesel emission cheating scandal.
The prosecutor’s office tells Reuters the query is informal at this point. Investigators have expanded the scope of their probes because illegal emission control software first uncovered in VW brand vehicles has also been found in diesel engines used by VW Group’s Audi and Porsche brands.
Investigators say they also are conducting a formal investigation of three low- and mid-level managers at Robert Bosch GmbH. Bosch developed and supplied the electronic control modules used by VW’s family of EA189 cheater diesels.
