Over the next 10 years this plan will put in place not only tools to clean up VW’s excess emissions, but also to help achieve further reductions of smog-forming pollution for decades to come. The mitigation plan approved by CARB will invest primarily in zero emission replacements for heavy-duty trucks, buses and equipment.
