According to the German magazine Autobild, BMW could be the next company to be caught in a scandal related to the emission of pollutants.
In tests carried out by the environmental regulator ICCT (International Council on Clean Transportation), the same entity that discovered the discrepancy in values at Volkswagen, the BMW X3 xDrive 20d will have exceeded the European pollutant emission limits by more than 11 times.

BMW has already gone public claiming that its models do not have any software changes designed to falsify results. According to the Reuteurs agency, BMW also confesses that it has not received the results, and cannot comment on the amounts in question.
This revelation, advanced by AutoBild, led to the fall of 8.5% of the brand's shares on the stock exchange, with the market reacting negatively to the possibility of the brand being involved in Dieselgate. The full news comes out tomorrow on AutoBild.
