Car manufacturers decided they would “rather cheat than comply with the law” over vehicle emissions, the High Court has heard, in what is the biggest legal action of its kind in English history.

Around 1.6 million motorists are taking legal action against more than a dozen manufacturers over claims that several diesel vehicles made from 2009 onwards contained “prohibited defeat devices” (PDDs).
