Renault SA Chief Executive Officer Carlos Ghosn said regulators need to determine new terms for checking vehicle emissions after probes sparked by Volkswagen AG’s test cheating exposed differences between laboratory results and cars’ on-street performance.
Readings from day-to-day vehicle use are always “multiples” of figures from testing, and so-called “real driving emissions” aren’t yet regulated, Ghosn said in his first remarks since a French government investigation of Renault came to light a week ago. “The question is what’s acceptable” to authorities, and “we are hoping that there is going to be a position from the European Commission on that.”
