Vw, software also affects fuel consumption – The Republic

Milan – not abating the storm of Volkswagen. Travolta dieselgate house Wolfsburg immediately before the collapse of the stock and the elimination of the vertices, then the fall in profit due to provisions by 6.7 billion – less expenses for damages or compensation and finally the start of an investigation for tax evasion and now, as he prepares to recall 11 million vehicles, new problems emerge for other software that covers the fuel consumption.

In short, after the scandal of emissions through rigged software, Volkswagen forced to deal with another problem, always related to software that – writes Die Welt – “has a direct influence on fuel consumption. In this case, it is a software that manages the recovery of kinetic energy in the battery,” he adds newspaper.

From Brussels, meanwhile, the EU commissioner for the internal market Elzbieta Bienkowska reiterated that Volkswagen must also compensate European consumers, not just Americans. The Commissioner therefore underlined the need to clarify and provide all data on cars manipulated. The director of the group Matthias Mueller has asked itself more time to provide updated figures on CO2 emissions in Brussels, which was given 10 days to inform Vw. Based on these, the Commission will decide whether to sanction the home or not. Also Wednesday, South Korea has ordered the withdrawal of 125,500 Volkswagen diesel vehicles involved in dieselgate and also the home of Wolfsburg inflicted a fine of 12.3 million dollars.
