Porsche has not offered any diesel models in the European market since Feb 2018. Diesel was always a minor part of their line-up and not a great fit for the brand, so this move isn’t hugely surprising.
It would be a much bigger victory for environmental campaigners if the wider VW group were to join Porsche, Toyota, Volvo, Subaru and Fiat Chrysler in announcing an end to diesel in cars.

Because at least in consumer cars the uncertainty surroundig possible limitations with driving into cities (in Austria and Germany) if you have a diesel car will almost erradicate this market segment in the next few years.
