I would never defend VW for the emissions scandal (although they were just the ones who were caught, far from the sole offender), but they certainly deserve praise for their ability to market good affordable vehicles to the masses. My bad feeling about this is coming from another perspective: this reminds me pretty closely of the Motorola-Apple Rockr fiasco. Cars are very different from phones, though. I’m surprised that Apple couldn’t sign a deal with the Japanese or the Koreans though.

Who else made software that runs the engine in cheat-mode when under emission test, which is what VW was caught doing?

What about FCA?

The Koreans build their own stuff.
