Rumor: After Dieselgate Disaster, VW Planning Big Move to Electric Vehicles

Via: Quartz:
VW is in trouble. Its multi-year deception to hoodwink US environmental laws is costing it billions of dollars, in addition to inestimable public good will. Worse, the scandal has threatened the company’s future.
