The Volkswagen Group will pay out £193 million to more than 90,000 UK motorists after reaching an out-of-court settlement for a seven-year litigation process relating to Dieselgate.
It's the latest payout in the wake of the scandal, which in the seven years since it broke has cost the Volkswagen Group some £26 billion in settlements, compensation, fines and buy-back schemes worldwide.
It stems from the identification of the so-called defeat devices in diesel-fuelled Volkswagen Group powertrains, which covered up the fact that they were emitting several times over the legal amount of nitrogen dioxide.
