The FCA vehicles in the sights of the German authorities (Fiat 500X, Doblò and Renegade all three Euro6) are "compliant with current regulations" and with our tests "we have not found the presence of any defeat device". He said it the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Graziano Delrio, in a hearing in the Chamber on questions relating to the effectiveness of the control system on vehicle emission levels, on the possible repercussions on the automotive sector and on the environment.
According to the minister, "there are all the conditions for a favorable resolution of the dispute" with the German authorities. “Following the dieselgate, we launched a campaign to test the emissions of 18 vehicles and our tests did not reveal any prohibited emissions manipulation devices, instead present on Volkswagen vehicles as admitted by the same manufacturer”. All "18 vehicles under our responsibility" resulted in "emission levels compatible with the emissions data and in compliance with the reference legislation", Delrio said.
But “having said that, the data obtained does not mean that they are data that represent the real behavior of the vehicles” e we need to "go from laboratory tests to road tests", he added. “The ecobonus incentives have been renewed and are having some success, also in economic terms. We will reach the figure of 30 billion euros”, concluded the minister.
