"Blume, who will remain Porsche chief executive once he takes over Diess’s job, has overseen the development and market launch of the electric Taycan model, which has overtaken the classic 911 in sales."

If VW still intends to float Porsche off as a separate business, I don't see how Mr. Blume can remain CEO of both!
