大衆在中國召回1950部柴油車
BEIJING — Volkswagen is recalling 1,950 diesel vehicles in China to correct engine software that the automaker has admitted cheats on emissions tests.
北京——大衆公司將在中國召回1950輛柴油汽車，修改發動機軟件。大衆承認，這個軟件被用於在尾氣檢測中作弊。
The recall applies to 1,946 Tiguan sport utility vehicles and four Passat B6 sedans, all of them imported, the company said Monday. It said technical solutions are being developed and have yet to be submitted to Chinese authorities for approval.
大衆週一說，本次召回涉及1946輛途觀SUV和四輛帕薩特B6轎車，都是進口車。大衆說，公司正在制定技術解決方案，方案還需要提交中國政府批准。
Volkswagen's business in China, the largest auto market by number of vehicles sold, has suffered little impact from the global emissions scandal due to the lack of popularity of diesel cars among Chinese drivers. But foreign companies are closely watched by Chinese authorities, and state media publicize suggestions of misconduct.
中國是按銷量計算最大的汽車市場。因爲柴油車在中國車主中間很不普及，所以大衆在中國的業務沒有因爲它的尾氣醜聞受到太多影響。但外國公司往往受到中國政府的嚴密監督，官方媒體也會對不當行爲的說法進行廣泛報道。
Europe's biggest automaker has acknowledged it installed software dubbed "defeat devices" on diesel vehicles. They switch on pollution controls when cars undergo emissions tests, but switch off during driving to improve performance.
這家歐洲最大的汽車製造商已經承認在柴油車上安裝了所謂的“失效裝置”，在尾氣檢測時，可以開啓環保模式，但在正常駕駛時則關閉環保模式，以提高性能。
