BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Volkswagen says carbon dioxide emissions 'inconsistencies' found in 800,000 vehicles

November 04, 2015 Reprints

Volkswagen A.G. said that an internal investigation has shown "unexplained inconsistencies" in the carbon dioxide emissions from its 800,000 vehicles and this could cost the automaker another €2 billion ($2.2 billion), reported The Associated Press.

This is the latest problem identified with Volkswagen emissions.

The automaker has said that the 800,000 were "predominantly vehicles with diesel engines."

This statement has raised the possibility for the first time that some of its vehicles with gasoline-powered motors may also have emissions problems.
