Here's the problem: clean diesel engines. Now that Europe requires the stringent Euro6 emissions certification for new automobile diesel engines, that means it's very easy to certify that same engine to meet the EPA Tier 2 Bin 5 certification needed for 50-state US sale. Why do you think Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen are all expanding their lineup of diesel-powered automobiles for the US market? And why GM will offer a turbodiesel engine on the Chevrolet Cruze compact sedan?

Yep, the clean diesel powered cars are coming to the USA.

Better performance and significantly better mileage that will satisfy the more stringent CAFE standards coming up.

I’m waiting for a small compact truck with a diesel engine.

Mahindra was mumbling about bringing one to America. I don’t think it has happened yet.
