Volkswagen France general director Jacques Rivoal answered questions in the French Assembly on Tuesday, regarding the VW emissions scandal and its impact on the French operations of the German carmaker.
During the enquiry, Rivoal said that the VW group did not think that the software, which had altered the results of emissions tests, constituted "an invalidating device forbidden by the European regulations."
When discussing the changes that the group has made, since the revelations came to light in September 2015, Rivoal said, "The new management called for more openness, more flexibility, also more audacity and more creativity."
The VW emissions scandal, involving around 11 million vehicles, arose following a series of failed car emission tests in the US. Volkswagen reportedly set aside $7.27 billion (€6.53 billion) to cover potential costs in September 2015.
