The Japanese car maker3 Suzuki says it has found discrepancies4 in the way it’s been testing vehicles for fuel efficiency and emissions5, but the company denied it had cheated to make its cars appear more efficient. Rumors6 of improper7 testing sent shares in the firm tumbling down nearly 10% in Tokyo when the market closed. Theo Leggett reports. Suzuki admits that an internal investigation8 has found discrepancies between the way in which its cars should have been tested and how the tests were actually carried out. However, it insists that there was no deliberate attempt to mislead its customers or flatter the performance of its cars. Although the admission is an embarrassing one for Suzuki, analysts9 say the apparent violation10 is less serious than those uncovered of its rival Mitsubishi which recently admitted falsifying fuel-economy data on a number of Japanese models. Meanwhile Mitsubishi itself has announced that its president Tetsuro Aikawa is to step down in the wake of the scandal.
