To be fair, didn’t it eventually come out that pretty much everyone was cheating? VW just got caught first.

Which other manufacturers were cheating?

Check the "Other manufacturers" heading.

But this is what happen when you have rules set by people that think they can ignore physical laws and somehow make it work.
