WASHINGTON, Nov 9 - A U.S. judge on Wednesday granted final approval to a class-action settlement worth at least $80 million to resolve claims Volkswagen AG
Porsche said on Wednesday that it has "been working to develop a solution and to ensure customers are appropriately compensated." Scrutiny of Volkswagen's vehicles grew after the German automaker in 2015 disclosed it had used sophisticated software to evade emissions requirements in nearly 11 million diesel vehicles worldwide.
Under the settlement, owners of Porsche vehicles with "Sport+" driving mode that exceeded emissions limits when driven in that mode will get an additional $250 when they complete emissions repair software updates that will reduce vehicle emissions.
