Volkswagen's CEO has said that while company executives are not "opposing" to retrofitting the exhaust systems of older diesel cars to make them cleaner, the company cannot afford to do so
.
Recent comments by Volkswagen CEO Matthias Mueller also included potential concerns about the vehicle's performance degradation if modifications were to be made
.
The comments certainly follow a recent ruling by a German court allowing municipalities to ban diesel cars due to air pollution concerns, which the federal government is now apparently trying to downplay the issue with Volkswagen's diesel cars amid concerns about the possible wider impact on the German auto industry
.
Currently, Volkswagen faces legal actions and fines in the United States involving diesel emissions fraud scandals
.
Not in Germany or the EU
.
Therefore, in recent decades, those businesses that believe that the government is committed to diesel cars "green" and buy diesel cars are good for the environment have been effectively solved .
.
.
Despite being misled, Germany has not paid them any compensation
.
Why are no compensation paid to affected diesel owners in Germany or the EU? Because the relationship between the German automotive industry and the German government is very close
.
Matthias Mueller, the current CEO of Volkswagen, said: "We have to pay about 25 billion euros in the United States, and we cannot pay another 17 billion euros for hardware modifications
.
This is simply impossible
.
”
Therefore, the executive of Volkswagen meant that they could not be held accountable in Germany, because they were already held accountable in the United States .
.
.
If they are also held accountable in Germany, they may even cease to exist
.
Reuters also previously revealed that "replacing hardware per car will cost between €1,500 and €7,000, and that the development and testing of a new exhaust cleaning system will take 2-3 years
.
" In addition, modified vehicles may consume more fuel and emit more carbon dioxide, which affects the level of
car taxes.
”
Of the 15 million diesel vehicles on German roads, only 2.
7 million are equipped with the latest Euro-6 emissions technology
.
Research firm Evercore ISI estimates that the cost of cleaning exhaust gases for 6 million Euro-5 cars could be as high as €14.
5 billion
