    It would be interesting to find what the final 'technical solution' is, be it calibration related (software) or a calibration to suit new hardware.
    Still no news on how these vehicles perform on the EU NEDC/NEFZ at EU5 limits though.

    Makes you wonder if the future EU solutions are 'just in case'.
