Renault: “Our software meets the rules.” – Autoblog.nl (Blog)

But do not judge too quickly! Renault has responded to the reports this morning. It showed that there are taken by the Ministry of Economy under other computers, to check that the controls the oh-so-independent Royal Commission really performed well virtues.

The statement represents the French brand that following the current procedure, the software in the cars of Renault complies with the rules. It is striking that continue claiming two paragraphs and casually mentions that the Ministry of Economy “simultaneously” continues to monitor the ongoing process, which will show to what extent the tests are manipulated … Anyway, we wait results off. Until then, we hope that the stock market remains somewhat friendly to Renault, because the share price is still in negative territory. To be continued.

Below is the full statement from Renault.

STATEMENT RENAULT GROUPE
