As of 27 Feb 2023 Volkswagens valuation is crazy cheap at a P/E of 4. It's subsidiary Porsche AG has a market cap of 102B EUR while Volkswagens market cap is only 65B EUR although it still controls 75% of Porsche AG and holds a lot of other valuable assets including Audi, Volkswagen, Volkswagen Financial Services.
Porsches competitor Ferrari has a crazy Market Cap of 48B EUR<ref name=":1" /> with revenue of only slightly under 5B EUR and Net Income under 1B EUR.
Porsche on the other side in 2021 had revenue of 33B EUR and profits of 4B. While a P/E over 20 seems very high for any car manufacturer there is still some potential upside to Porsches valuation if it gets hyped up like Ferrari. <ref>https://investorrelations.porsche.com/de/financial-figures/</ref>
During Porsches IPO 7.7% of the total order volume was placed by retail investors, which was highlighted by Porsche. <ref name=":2" />
