德国当局与BMW、Mercedes和VW三家公司高层会面后
初步决定会以更新软件的方式召回已出售的柴油车来降低 NOx 排放量 25~30%
这波软件更新对象主要是欧5与欧6的柴油车款
其中约380万辆来自VW
90万辆来自Mercedes，30万辆来自BMW
合计约530万辆 (还有30万辆哪来的新闻没写)
这项软件更新有没有强制力还不晓得，若是以软件更新的方式来降低NOx排放
势必会影响到车子的性能，若是政府没有其他强制性的配套一起实施的话
应该会有很多车主不愿意回厂去进行这一项软件更新
这三大厂虽然争取到了较省钱的方法不用进行硬件更新而是只要软件更新就好
但若因此影响了车子的性能可能会因小失大失去自家车主的信赖
希望在台湾卖出的柴油车也能有同等待遇，而不是被当成次等人类对待....

BMW, Mercedes and VW agree on emissions software update for 5.3m cars
The move agreed with German authorities includes an incentive scheme for
owners to trade in their old car for a new, less polluting vehicle
A trio of German car makers have agreed to issue a software update on 5.3
million diesel cars to cut pollution levels by nearly a third.
BMW, Volkswagen and Daimler – the latter the parent company of Mercedes
– reached an agreement with German authorities to update 5.3million cars
with Euro5 and 6 diesel engines with a software tweak that will reduce
nitrogen oxide emissions by 25 to 30 per cent. No customer will be
charged for the update.
Of the 5.3 million cars, 3.8 million come from VW – of which 2.5
million have already been upgraded as part of the emissions scandal. A
further 900,000 Daimler vehicles will be involved, and 300,000 vehicles
from BMW.
The carmakers also agreed to set up an incentive scheme, where drivers of
older, more polluting models would be able to trade vehicles in exchange
for a new, low-emissions vehicle.
The move follows similar announcements made by Mercedes, Audi, Porsche
and VW. Last month, both companies announced they would issue a voluntary
software update on cars sold in Europe to improve their NOx emissions
under real world driving. Mercedes issued a ￡195m technical fix on three
million cars in Europe, while Audi, Porsche and VW said their update
would apply to 850,000 cars with the VW Group's V6 and V8 diesel engines.
BMW is offering owners across Europe an “environmental bonus of up to €
2,000,” for owners of Euro 4 or older diesels who trade in their car and
purchase a new BMW or MINI. According to BMW, the new car has to be
either a BMW or MINI fitted with Euro6 engine or electric and hybrid
technology.
Harald Krueger, chairman of the board of management at BMW said: "The
meeting [between BMW and German authorities] was an important step. We
support the initiative and are investing in the Sustainable Urban
Mobility fund. State-of-the art diesels will definitely play an important
role in future mobility, as well."
