Regulatory News:
In response to press reports today, Groupe PSA (Paris:UG)
indicates that it has not been contacted by the judicial
authorities. The group is outraged to learn that information has
been provided to third parties whereas Groupe PSA has never had
access to the file submitted by the DGCCRF to the public
prosecutor's office, making it impossible for the group to put
forward its arguments.
Groupe PSA has repeatedly explained its strategy regarding
engine settings. This strategy is based on its customers’ use in
real life. It favors low nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions in cities
while ensuring the best NOx/ CO2balance on open roads.
This situation undermines the group’s reputation and the
interests of its 210,000 employees, its customers and its partners.
Groupe PSA reserves the right to file a complaint for breach of
confidentiality of the investigation and the authorities’
confidentiality obligation.
Groupe PSA reaffirms that:
• It complies with regulations in every country where it
operates and its vehicles have never been equipped with software or
systems making it possible to detect compliance tests and to
activate a pollutant treatment device that would be inactive during
customer use.
• It is the only car manufacturer in the world to have put in
place a total transparency approach regarding the consumption and
CO2emissions of its models in real use conditions. This approach
will be extended to NOx emissions by the end of 2017. The results
of the 400 measures covering 60 models (80% of European sales) are
available on the brands’ websites.
