I don't think it's that VW can't meet the requirements, it's that they don't think it'll be as commercially successful. I think it's the tension between emissions requirements and customer demand for powerful vehicles. As allowable emissions decrease over the years, which automaker will be successful shipping a vehicle that has less power than the previous model? And that's the whole reason for emissions requirements, left to their own devices, automakers and customers weren't getting it done.
