Scandal emissions: in Mitsubishi falsified tests since 1991

The Japanese giant Mitsubishi car is always in trouble. Along the lines of what happened to the German manufacturer Volkswagen, the fixing scandal emissions in order to pass the tests with each passing day takes a turn increasingly heavy.

Mitsubishi has admitted that he resorted to an improper use of tests on anti-smog emissions in the Japanese market since 1991. During a press conference held in Tokyo, Mitsubishi Motors said it had plans to establish a special committee internal investigation – consisting of external experts, three former prosecutors – who will communicate the results of the investigation after three months of study of the case.

The company has meanwhile submitted to the Ministry of Transportation emissions data from 1991 to the present. The title has collapsed on the stock exchange of another 10%, a loss that is in addition to the -35% of the total of the last sessions.
