German court rules against Mercedes-Benz in part over diesel emissions defeat devices.

A German court ruled in favour of consumers in part in a class action lawsuit against Mercedes-Benz over diesel emissions defeat devices. The court found that some of Mercedes' diesel models with Euro 6 grade engines, built between 2012-2016, had cheat devices. The court allowed owners to return the cars and count on a refund minus wear and tear, provided the intended violation is confirmed. Mercedes plans to appeal the decision.
