Rennteamers, I would greatly appreciate your help.  I write for a Porsche Club of America monthly magazine, and have been asked to write an article about the Mission E concept.  I attended the Frankfurt press conference and have done general research, as well as having read this thread.  But i would appreciate any views about the following specific questions:

1.  Will the VW diesel debacle, and Porsche management changes, result in fewer research/development dollars, or delay, or even shelving, of the Mission E?

2.  If Porsche goes forward with development and production, what market and infrastructure challenges will it face (recharging stations, Tesla competition, etc.)?

3.  Overall, do you think this is a worthwhile direction for Porsche?

I have a deadline of October 11, so I would appreciate your prompt replies.  Thank you!
