  • dc.description.abstract In September 2015, the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) issued a notice of violation of the Clean Air Act to the automobile manufacturer Volkswagen.1 It alleges that four-cylinder Volkswagen and Audi diesel vehicles from the years 2009–2015 included software that circumvented accurate emissions testing for certain air pollutants—in particular, nitrogen oxides (NOx).
