Porsche reports comprehensively on production emissions and renewable energy, but relies heavily on per-vehicle intensity metrics that mask flat or worsening absolute reductions. SBTi targets remain unvalidated. A 2022 settlement for emissions cheating on 500,000 vehicles and ongoing weak lobbying on climate policy undermine credibility.
