Volkswagen cars at a dealership in Los Angeles, California on June 28, 2016.  Volkswagen has agreed to pay out $14.7 billion in a settlement with US authorities and car owners over its emissions-cheating diesel-powered cars. The settlement filed in federal court calls for the German auto giant to either buy back or fix the cars that tricked pollution tests, and to pay each owner up to $10,000 in cash.  / AFP PHOTO / Mark Ralston
