Mitsubishi Motors shares indicated below record low after cheating on mileage

Mitsubishi Motors Corp's shares were flooded with sell orders, indicated below their life-time low, on Thursday after the Japanese automaker admitted to manipulating test data to overstate the fuel economy of 625,000 cars. Japan's sixth-biggest automaker said on Wednesday it stopped making and selling its eK mini-wagons for the domestic market after Nissan Motor Co, which procures a similar model from Mitsubishi, found a discrepancy in fuel efficiency test data.
