U.S. Judge Approves $1.5 Billion Daimler Diesel Emissions Settlement

A U.S. judge on Tuesday approved Daimler AG’s $1.5 billion settlement to resolve a U.S. government probe into diesel pollution from 250,000 vehicles.

The settlement, which was announced in September, includes an $875 million civil penalty levied under the Clean Air Act and $546 million to fix the polluting vehicles and offset excess emissions, court papers show. Daimler will also pay California $127.5 million and separately agreed to a $700 million settlement with diesel vehicle owners.
