According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period issued false and misleading statements to investors and/or failed to disclose that Volkswagen utilized a “defeat device” in certain of its diesel cars that allowed such cars to temporarily reduce emissions during testing, while achieving higher performance and fuel economy, as well as discharging dramatically higher emissions, when testing was not being conducted. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
