    The investigations concern information provided to consumers regarding the driving range of electrical vehicles, battery capacity degradation and operational limitats on standard battery warranties, which could have breached the Consumer Code, the agency said in a statement.
    The Antitrust explained that it carried out inspections on Thursday at the Italian headquarters of the four automakers, aided by the finance police's special antitrust unit. (ANSA).
