Renault charged with deception over diesel emissions probe

Renault has been charged with deception in relation to an emissions probe which has being ongoing since 2017.

The car manufacturer confirmed this week that it is being charged in relation to emissions cheating by French prosecutors but continues to deny that it has "committed any crime.”

A statement issued by the OEM this week reiterated that its vehicles are not equipped with systems that would enable it to cheat in emissions testing, adding: “All Renault vehicles have always been approved in accordance with applicable laws and regulations."
