Searches were conducted at the Volkswagen offices and also in the office of the Italian of luxury car manufacturer Lamborghini, which is also included in the Volkswagen group.
Last month, the US Environmental Protection Agency accused Volkswagen of installing software in the company’s diesel engines to falsify emissions test results.
The automaker later clarified that an estimated 11 million of their diesel engine cars worldwide had software installed that was engineered to downplay emission discharges. The engines are now shown to be emitting up to 20 times more greenhouse gas than reported by official tests.
