Volkswagen is considering using the Porsche Panamera platform to underpin other models in its group, according to reports from the US.

It is claimed that Porsche is willing to share the Panamera platform with other brands to recoup the large development costs involved, despite previously claiming it would not be sharing it.

The reports didn’t say which other brand in the VW Group would get the four-seat, rear drive and all-wheel drive platform, although Audi, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Bentley and VW itself would all be candidates.

Hybrid and GTS versions of the Panamera are planned by Porsche within the next three years.
