VW's car DRM let it get away with cheating on its diesel emissions testing

It’s a bit off topic but somebody help me to understand why diesel vehicles like this are legally allowed to spew visible black smoke while normal gasoline engines are subjected to strict emissions tests and fined heavily for defective smog controls.

Because those States don’t care?

Volkswagen has set aside € 6.5 billion to cover the cost of fixing the vehicles as well as anticipated fines and settlements.
