As a consequence of the VW exhaust scandal, Federal Transport Minister Alexander Dobrindt wants to tighten the test procedures for all major car manufacturers according to a media report. In future, they would have to disclose their engine software to the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA), reported the “Bild am Sonntag”.
Replace inspector
That emerges from the first results of the investigative commission set up by Dobrindt in September. In addition, the inspectors from TÜV and Dekra, who measure the emissions values at the car manufacturers, should be replaced regularly in the future. In addition, according to the report, state test rigs are to be used for follow-up checks.
VW had manipulated emissions tests on millions of diesel vehicles with the help of software. In Germany alone, the KBA has ordered a binding recall for a total of 2.4 million cars, which should begin at the beginning of 2016. (dpa)
