- jfoutz 11y agoI think the VW software actually checks to see if it was in test mode, and altered emissions. Varying emissions based on load is perfectly reasonable.
- grandalf 11y ago> software actually checks to see if it was in test mode, and altered emissions I saw this reported, but also saw that it actually just looks for acceleration and steering conditions often found in testing scenarios. There was no mention of whether these conditions are also found in routine use of the vehicle. Not sure which is true.
- dustinchilson 11y agoI'm thinking the 25% drop in stock prices might've had more to do with it.
- grandalf 11y agoAgreed. Once the accusations were made public and the stock price dipped, the optimal solution may involve the CEO stepping down... and likely goes a long way to appease regulators and deflect further scrutiny.
