VOLKSWAGEN (VW) is staking out an aggressive response to its emissions-testing crisis in Europe, where most of the affected vehicles were sold, by essentially saying: We didn't cheat here.
The company's system to trick, or "defeat", pollution tests, which VW has admitted installing in millions of vehicles globally, "is not a forbidden defeat device" under European rules, a company spokesman said in a statement to The New York Times.
