Why aren’t they selling more diesels here?...........Americans still remember the GM debacle of the 80’s with the diesels that were made from gasoline blocks.................
I think the EPA’s restrictions on diesels (in part to protect the hybrids’ turf and the interests of the ethanol lobby) are more to blame. Car buyers in their 40s or younger just don’t remember much about the GM diesel mess of the ‘80s. FWIW, I see a lot of younger drivers in VW TDI cars.
