It's funny how the dieselgate scandal was just a few years ago (and still ongoing) and now that same company's big and bold slogan is "VW way to zero - roadmap for climate neutral mobility". We live at a time that a bit of shame is easily forgotten.
I think this issue comes up all the time with individuals either being negligent or just plain incompetent and then when it all screws up, they just blame the previous management and move onto another similar job in another company. At what point is the individual liable and what point is it "tough luck VW, you have to pay for that crook of a CEO you employed"
It wasn't that long ago that I charged my Nissan Leaf at an Electrify America charger, paid for by VW, and VW seems to be moving forward with their electrification efforts. I'm not saying all is forgiven, but I'm ready to move on. If they actually release that Buzz electric van, we'll likely stand in line to buy one.
