This week we Learnt About Dieselgate

Yet another auto icon has fallen from grace. Japanese giant Mitsubishi has admitted that it cheated on emissions standards tests for 25 years. Known for global bellwethers like Pajero, Lancer and Magna, the firm says this affects 6,00,000 cars, adding—in a somewhat incredulous statement—that the faulty cars were only sold to the Japanese people. In a statement, the firm admits it had misrepresented fuel consumption rates on four car models—two Mitsubishi-branded, and two of those built for Nissan. Meanwhile, tainted auto giant Volkswagen has wrested the No. 1 global position from shutdown hit Toyota. Ah, the irony.
