“There must have been lots of VW under pressure—they’ve run into a physical wall of what might be possible so trickery was the only option."

He went on to say what he would do if he were running Volkswagen.

“Any car company that doesn’t go electric will go out of business. If I was taking over VW, I’d go the other way and aim to be a leader [in clean vehicles].”

This comes after he made certain predictions about the future of carmaking.
