Volkswagen says it wants a fresh start and the resignation of the chief executive Martin Winterkorn could make that possible. But the scandal over emissions threatens to destroy the reputation of the world's biggest carmaker. The company says 11 million cars were fitted with the software used to rig emissions tests in the US. Worldwide lawsuits with penalties into the billions could follow. The German government has denied accusations that it knew that Volkswagen was doing this before the deception came to light. Our business correspondent Theo Leggett reports from outside Volkswagen's headquarters in Wolfsburg.
"Dr Winterkorn's resignation did not come as a surprise. He became chief executive of Volkswagen in 2007 and was at the helm throughout the period when the company was producing cars which could circumvent emissions controls in the United States. He said in a statement that he was shocked by events of the past few days and stunned that misconduct on such a scale was possible within the VW Group. He also denied any wrongdoing."
