Following up on the previous discussion in this thread, I would like to add that according to Volkswagen, the VW diesel engines (model series EA 189 2.0 L CR) that are installed in Linde trucks are not affected by the emissions manipulation that is currently being investigated in the USA. Furthermore, these and other diesel engines supplied by Volkswagen Powersystems and installed by KION Group brands comply with the EU Non Road and EPA emissions standards that were applicable at the time that the engines were registered. This information was provided by the Volkswagen Group in response to an inquiry by the KION Group.
