Is this the same Citroen that had claimed all their vehicles were compliant ?
Sadly no longer a C5 owner :(

Stellantis have a nice collection of "dieselgate brands" now Opel-Vauxhall/Peugeot/Citroen. Haven't checked but will Fiat and its various sub brands escaped...doubt it somehow, (edit. and not surprisingly they haven't) . Hope their pockets are as deep as VW's.

Still good news for Electric infrastructure roll out, VW are having to "electrify America" as part of their settlement.

VW’s $2 billion penalty for diesel scam, Electrify America, builds electric charging network across US to boost EV market

Why do these media dolts have to add 'Gate' to every story. :?
Man is, by nature, a lazy beast, he does not need twice encouraging to do nothing.

The vultures don't waste any time do they?

Their fees? Anything up to 50% of any compensation....

I have no sympathies for anyone 'cheating' emissions should this actually be proven (it has been significantly hyped by the media), but I have a total disdain for any money leeching lawyer claim firms.
