Abstract: ICCT (a small American NGO) after conducting some scientific tests on a variety of cars sold on the American market accused Volkswagen of forging the emissions tests. The cars in question were equipped with diesel engines, which are known for being more pollutant than their equivalents running on gasoline,but strangely enough, more eonomical. As a result, an investigation began to establish whether the allegations were true or not and if they were true, who were the culprits and which are the possible effects.
