French Finance Minister Michel Sapin tells Europe 1 radio the EU should launch an investigation into Volkswagen AG's admission that it used secret software to cheat on U.S. emission certification tests for the 2.0-liter diesels it sells there.
Sapin suggests the probe also should check real-life emission levels for French diesel-powered vehicles too "in order to reassure" consumers the cars are as clean as carmakers claim.
U.S. regulators say VW faces a fine as large as $18 billion (€16.1 billion) and criminal charges against some of its executives. Additional state-level lawsuits claiming the company misled consumers are virtually inevitable.
