The Stuttgart-based carmaker was summoned for a meeting on
Thursday to address allegations that it had sold more than a
million cars with excessive emissions in Europe and the United
States.
The Transport Ministry spokesman added that the German Federal
Motor Transport Authority (KBA) was inspecting Daimler cars for
possible excessive emissions.
"Daimler said during the meeting on Thursday that it had acted
in accordance with the law," the spokesman said during a regular
government news conference.
