VW confirms Audi cars also had emissions cheating software

Volkswagen has confirmed that some Audi cars are equipped with software that can distort carbon dioxide emissions test results, as authorities in Europe and the US open investigations into the German automaker.
The vehicles now in question are both gasoline and diesel powered.
Investigators are now looking into whether the way Audi engineered some of its automatic transmissions was aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions during lab tests but allow higher emissions during normal road use, Volkswagen and Audi confirmed.
