Yep, which is dumb-assery at its finest.

Lets make 25% more of every other type of pollution so the NOX percentage is lower, great idea, very important to meet that stat, no owner will defeat the defeat.

Add to this they are finding other companies other than VW have emissions cheats, so the circus keeps expanding.
