Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV will offer new calibrations to make its most recent generation of diesel vehicles cleaner on the road after completing an internal review of its cars following the Volkswagen AG scandal.
Fiat reiterated that all its vehicles comply with emission regulations and the company doesn’t cheat on emissions tests, saying it will offer the new pollution settings starting in April as a “voluntary measure not mandated or requested by any regulatory authorities.” The carmaker said it will also add a different filtering technology, called selective catalytic reduction, to more of its diesel cars starting from the second quarter of 2017.
