BMW rejects media reports of emissions manipulations
German carmaker BMW on Sunday rejected media reports that the emissions treatment systems in its vehicles do not work effectively and that it colluded with rivals on their design. Der Spiegel magazine reported on Friday that BMW, VW , Audi and Porsche may have colluded to fix the prices and designs of diesel emissions treatment systems and other vehicle parts. "Cars of the BMW Group are not being manipulated and are in line with the applicable legal requirements," BMW said in a statement.
