Human testing of car exhaust fumes

So as this article explains German car makers seem to have suffered something of a lapse of judgement, again:

German shock at car exhaust tests on humans and monkeys

Quote:

...at the weekend Germany's Stuttgarter Zeitung and SWR radio reported that 19 men and six women had inhaled diesel fumes in another EUGT experiment.
During a month of tests at a lab in Aachen, west Germany, they were exposed to various concentrations of diesel fumes, which contain toxic nitrogen oxides (NOx). The BBC has not seen the study itself, but German media say it was published in 2016.
Not only is there the questionable ethics of this in the wake of the revelations that Volkswagen rigged their exhaust systems to cheat emissions tests, there's the optics of a German company doing this, I do wonder why no one seemed to consider the PR aspects of this becoming public.
