Volkswagen settled a major diesel emissions class action lawsuit brought by hundreds of vehicle owners right before the case was set to go to trial.
vehicles with medium mileage (T Buetler, personal communication). We may conclude that emission levels as recorded by the New European Driving Cycle are not being met. However, there is more than that. Strong evidence suggests that under real-life driving, NOxemissions of diesels largely exceed ...

“Daimler denies the material factual allegations and legal claims asserted by the plaintiffs and settlement class members.” The civil proceedings are tied to emission control systems of about 250,000 of Daimler’s diesel vehicles in the US. More specifically, the settlement relates to MY 09-...
Beyond just the nuts and bolts of trucks, BYD is launching an all-electric forklift with ultra-fast full charging (as opposed to the “80% in 30 minutes” claims we get from most fast-charging stations). This results in a fully charged forklift in 1–2 hours vs the typical overnight ...
The emission concentrations of particulate matters from diesel vehicle engine were inversely proportional to the specified engine speeds. To the contrary, the increase of engine speeds resulted in increase of fractions of metal contents in particulate matters. We conducted simple linear regression analysis...
Three diesel fuels, one oil sand-derived (OSD) diesel serving as base fuel, one cetane-enhanced base fuel, and one oxygenate [diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (DEDM)]-blended base fuel, were tested for their emission characterizations in vehicle exhaust on a light-duty diesel truck that reflect...

exhibiting much higher real-life NOxemissions (e.g.[68] claims two-to-fourfold higher real-life NOxemissions). Outside the laboratory, only marginal NOxemission reductions were recorded over the last 10 years, i.e. from 650 (Euro 0) to 560 mg NOxkm−1(Euro 5) due to Scholz[69]. ...
