U.S. officials announced a $1.6 billion deal with Toyota's Hino Motors unit to settle charges it deceived regulators about the amount of emissions spewed by its diesel engines.
The Justice Department charged Toyota truck unit Hino in U.S. District Court in Detroit, and NHTSA levied a civil penalty over emissions data cheating.
Hino Motors will plead guilty to submitting false emissions data to regulators for more than 100,000 heavy-duty trucks. The company will pay an array of fines, and fix some affected vehicles for free.
