What strikes me is...the ICCT dropped the bomb right at the start of Europe's biggest automobile convention, IAA in Germany.
I wonder, i wonder...
well...authorities need to take a closer look at stock market transactions  muhahahaha |
Exactly what I thought.
It was over piechs statements about winterkorn and muller that resulted in his loss of position.
That being said I think the dieselgate is going to involve many more cars, that being said I honestly think the company was looking out for the consumer (as that affects their bottom line)
TDI engines are known to be fuel efficient and provide good performance at a low price. I think cheating was the only way for them to provide all of these at once. Immoral, yes. However it would be unneeded if the gov didn't regulate what companies sell and we buy anyways. These cars are no dirtier than most cars sold 10 years ago to my understanding and are entirely acceptable in Europe, and I can tell you right now they have nothing on a bro truck.
I guess let the free market decide if they want a dirty diesel or not. No need for the gov to get their hands in it..... Or which octane I can buy... Or if corn is in my fuel...
Get off my lawn.
