German engineering company IAV GmbH will plead guilty to conspiracy and pay a $35 million fine in connection with its role in Volkswagen’s scheme to defeat U.S. diesel emissions standards.  Despite knowing that the Volkswagen cars did not meet U.S. emissions standards and that Volkswagen was concealing material facts, IAV participated in designing and implementing software to cheat the U.S. testing process.  DOJ
