Mitsubishi Motors Corp., the Japanese automaker that acknowledged last week it had intentionally lied about fuel economy data for some of its models, said an internal investigation found such tampering dated back to 1991.
http://www.latimes.com/business/ ... 20160426-story.htmlThe inaccurate mileage tests involved 157,000 of its eK wagon and eK Space light passenger cars, as well as 468,000 Dayz and Dayz Roox vehicles produced for Nissan Motor Co.
The models are all "minicars" with tiny engines whose main attraction is generally great mileage. They were produced beginning in March 2013. The problem surfaced after Nissan pointed out inconsistencies in data.
