Car behemoth Volkswagen will face a German court Monday, as hundreds of thousands of owners of manipulated diesel cars demand compensation four years after the country's largest post-war industrial scandal erupted.
The trial is Germany's largest so far in the tentacular diesel scandal, which last week saw VW chief executive Herbert Diess charged with market manipulation over his role.In the mass lawsuit, the most important of around 50 questions for judges is whether Volkswagen"caused harm" by acting"dishonestly".
To avoid such delays, the VZBV says it is"open" to an out-of-court settlement but"in that case, VW would have to pay a significant sum after all," Mueller told AFP. Most of that sum -- $22 billion -- has gone to the US, while in Germany VW has so far paid just 2.3 billion dollars spread across three fines.
