Japanese auto giant Toyota has announced a complete suspension of the sale of diesel cars in Europe since this year.In our passenger cars, diesel will be abolished in 2018," said Johann Zyl, the first Toyota man in Europe.
He explained that Toyota is not planning to develop new diesel technologies for passenger cars, adding that their focus will continue to be hybrid vehicles.
Scandal related to the harmfulness of the emissions of exhaust gases, which first exploded in Volkswagen, 2015, accelerated the "turning back" diesel technology due to the harmfulness of exhaust particles.
This scandal shook the entire atomic industry and hit a big blow to car makers, for years they tried to cut carbon dioxide emissions with government support.
