CMA found car firms chose not to compete when advertising what percentage of their vehicles could be recycled

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) launched an investigation after a tipoff from Mercedes-Benz, which allowed the German marque to avoid financial penalties despite also being involved in the cartel.
