Fiat Chrysler denies claims of diesel test-manipulation

Milan

FIAT Chrysler Automobiles has denied a report that it could be fined for manipulating French diesel-emissions tests, saying the allegations have no basis and that its vehicles comply with the law. It added in an e-mailed statement that it hasn't been charged with any offence and is cooperating with French authorities.

French newspaper Le Monde had reported on Monday that the potential fine appears in a report from France's anti-fraud office; France opened an emissions probe in March, which also includes Peugeot, Renault and Volkswagen (VW).
