Rumours are building that Volkswagen North America will pay up to US$7000 in compensation to owners of cars affected by the on-going "Dieselgate” emissions scandal, as part of a whopping US$10.2 billion (AU$13.8 billion) settlement that’s expected to be submitted to a Federal judge early next week.

The cash will reportedly be split between the 482,000-odd owners of affected vehicles, with an unspecified amount set aside for fines and penalties resulting from the company wilfully dodging US emissions rules.

Some money will also be set aside to buy back vehicles in the event a customer doesn’t want to have a fix applied for free.
