Not only car manufacturers are trying better tests to come. In the field of rubber, they can also.

The Finnish Nokian has designed special tires that were only used for testing. In this way, the bandenboer always better in the comparisons than the quality actually was. The manufacturer acknowledges the cheating with the tests in a statement.

The response came from CEO Ari Lehtoranta after the Finnish newspaper Kauppalehti wrote an article about the practices of Nokian, according to Bloomberg. The newspaper wrote that the bandenboer years sjoemelde during various tests. Media who did research to rubber got special tires sent from Nokian. This had a more positive influence on the fuel consumption of the car, the bandengeluid and the grip. The testbanden were possible a lot more expensive in development and production, so these never were sold to the consumer.

Now Kauppalehti the sjoemelpraktijken known went Lehtoranta with the buttocks exposed. The CEO offers his apologies for the mislead of the consumer and says it was wonderful and everything was more to do. Mustard after the meal, mr. Lehtoranta. The share of Nokian Renkaat made a beursklapper of 9.6 percent when the news known. The stock market closed Friday with a final decrease of 7.4 percent.
