Opel 16,000 electric cars because they fail the exhaust emissions test

Current regulations require cars to be supplied with emissions-tracking technology, according to a report via AD News on Saturday, Dec. 3.

In the event that the regulations are the regulations, the Corsa-e asks for a modification by not passing the emission control, for a car without exhausts. But therein lies the problem, the law requires cars to be equipped with means to control emissions.

All electric and non-electric cars will have to be measured through a dynamometer.

According to a spokesman for the group, a software adjustment will be necessary to say that it is “impossible to perform a test bench measurement with the car to check that emissions standards have been met. “

All Corsa-e cars built between October 2019 and May 2022 would be affected, and the new models contain the software fix.

Opel said the procedure has already begun in Germany, where installing the update takes about forty-five minutes. The upgrade is free of charge and must be done through a legal Opel dealer.

In total, Opel is recalling more than 16,000 that, following the upgrade, are no longer expected to fail the exhaust emissions test.
