Did BMW cheat about Nitric Oxide Levels?

Records of the X3 are more than 11 times higher its nitric oxide variables.

BMW seems to get in trouble right after the famous diesel scandal of VW. Were they cheating on emissions test or not?

According to AutoBild, the X3 xDrive 20d did not held a street test lead by the International Council on Clean Transportation. Its nitric oxide emissions were 11 times higher than the ones agreed by the European Union.

The Bavarian producer has not approved these facts yet. It was found out that the company’s shares have fallen more than 8%.

More information on the research will come with the next magazine AutoBuild.
