Roughly 2.1 million Audi models worldwide are involved in the on-going Volkswagen emissions scandal, with the company revealing to newswire service Reuters that the controversial EA189 engine was fitted to numerous model lines.

Audi, which is part of the Volkswagen Group, equipped the A1, A3, A4, A5, A6, Q3, Q5 and TT with the 2.0 litre EA189 turbo diesel four-cylinder, which was recently discovered to be fitted with an emissions test cheating device.
