Audi Slapped With $928 Million Fine For Dieselgate Violations By German Prosecutors

Following VW’s €1 billion fine in June, German prosecutors have penalized Audi as well with the whopping amount of €800 million ($928 million).

The huge fine is “due to deviations from regulatory requirements in the context of certain V6 and V8 diesel aggregates and diesel vehicles manufactured or distributed by Audi AG,” the automaker says in a statement.

So Audi will increase price of every Audi about $494. to pay off the diesel fine. Corporation always pass along the fines and expenses.

Last year, Audi sold a record 1,878,100 vehicles.
