BERLIN (Reuters) - Porsche will integrate Google Maps, Google Assistance and other apps from Google Play into its future cars, it said on Monday.

Porsche said in January it was considering fully integrating Google software into its car cockpit, following the end of its cooperation with Volkswagen's Cariad unit on software research and development.
