Volkswagen is reportedly being called to make restitution for the recent diesel emissions cheat scandal, which has severely clouded the car giant's reputation.

The US Environmental Protection Agency has asked VW to produce electric vehicles in its factory in Chattanooga, Tennessee [arstechnica.com], according to German newspaper Welt am Sonntag [www.welt.de] (via Google translate [google.co.uk]). The car maker has also apparently been told to develop a network of charging stations.

Can the government dictate which lines of business VW should be in?
