French investigators charged Stellantis NV’s Peugeot and Citroen subsidiaries over allegedly defrauding consumers with diesel engines in a broadening crackdown on carmakers that’s already ensnared Renault SA and Volkswagen AG.
The two marques, which became part of Stellantis when PSA Group merged with Fiat Chrysler early this year, must pay a combined 18 million euros ($22 million) in bail and provide two bank guarantee worth a total of 55 million euros.
