TOKYO, April 26 (UPI) -- Japanese automaker Mitsubishi Motors on Tuesday admitted that it has falsified some fuel consumption tests since 1991.
"For the domestic market, we have been using that method since 1991," Mitsubishi Vice President Ryugo Nakao said at a Tokyo press conference referring to last week's revelation Mitsubishi rigged fuel economy tests in about 625,000 vehicles to make mileage figures better.
