Volkswagen is the larger company here. There really is no
comparison. Volkswagen is a HUGE company:
Audi
Lamborghini (sort of)
Bentley
Skoda
There's more, too. They're like the GM of Germany. The third largest
car company in the world (GM and Toyota are 1 and 2, respectively).

Larger doesn't mean richer here. Porsche is the most profitable car
company in the world and at this time owns more than 20% of VW stock,
and increasing. It used to be the other way around.

You realize Porsche and VW were founded by the same family, you are just
looking at basically different branches of the same tree. Now the 'other'
branch is taking over.
fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.

My brothers do not think exactly the same way as I do. There could be
2 or 3 generations from the pre WWII origins of VW. Slight management
shift might mean nothing. I doubt VWoA is going to change much which
is the influence I purchase from.
