Re: What do we make of this? The future???
By what I've read they have an experimental plant in Chile and mass production is going to be eye wateringly expensive, OK for GT3 owners I guess.
There's some more info on the EV thread along with a link.

Not sure how this would cut Co2 emissions? If I have read it right, it’s recycling Co2 but I assume it’s not net zero, even if the manufacture is powered by renewables. Also the fuel has to get distributed by road I guess

No doubt the EU will back it because Porsche is German.

In my opinion it's a desperate attempt by the Gemans to kick the can down the road hoping that a miracle happens, which it might if the airline industry switches to synthetic fuels although I imagine Michael O'Leary will have something to say on that.
As you say it appears to be recycling CO2 but I assume it's said to cut emissions when compared to petrol.
