flag Five automakers face UK trial over diesel emissions cheating, claiming 1.8 million drivers were misled.

flag Five major automakers—Mercedes, Ford, Peugeot-Citroen, Renault, and Nissan—are on trial at London’s High Court in a landmark case over allegations they installed software in diesel vehicles to manipulate emissions tests, misleading consumers about pollution levels. flag The trial, beginning October 10, 2025, could impact over 1.8 million UK drivers who claim they were deceived into buying vehicles marketed as environmentally friendly. flag While the companies deny wrongdoing, citing technical justifications or compliance with regulations at the time, the case builds on the 2015 Volkswagen scandal, which led to billions in global penalties. flag A liability ruling is expected in 2026, followed by a separate compensation phase.
