I believe even Europe has been moving slowly away from their enchantment with diesel cars to more gas engines for a few years now, for anti-emissions reasons.
“I believe even Europe has been moving slowly away from their enchantment with diesel cars to more gas engines for a few years now, for anti-emissions reasons.”
I think I saw an article that Europe had dealt with fuel economy and emissions by going in the diesel direction for several years, while at the same time the US had gone in the hybrid direction.
Diesels have about 50% passenger vehicle market share in Europe, versus about 1% in the US.
The article suggested this scandal may result in a turn in favor of hybrid.
