>Diesels are filthy, inefficient, noxious things that only belong in tractors and trains.

satire? diesel is more clean than gasoline

also trains use electric motors

Actually NOx emissions from diesel vehicles mitigate the greenhouse effect of CO2, so really by driving polluting diesels you're fighting global warming.

HOWEVER - NOx is also highly hazardous to our health in increased concentrations, so it should be encouraged in rural areas and banned in urban areas.

Cargo trains don't. In many countries not even passenger trains do.

>>17308305
What do they use?

>>17308305
yes they do, they've been using electric motors for almost 100 years

>>17308316
>>17308321
To be entirely specific they do use electric motors, but they use diesel-electric generators to power them, which makes the source of their energy fossil.

Diesel has a 25% efficiency vs gasoline's 17% and diesel can be created 100% organically. The first diesel ran on peanut oil. There is a reason the Jews want it outlawed.

>implying not everyone cheats on their emissions test

chryster was caught cheating on their deisles as well more than likely everyone does it

>>17308358
But VAG is literally the GM of Germany and both deserve to fucking die.

>>17308325
>>17308316

virtually every train here in the UK runs on diesel, a few small commuters and subway/trams are electric but diesel is still dominant

>>17308364
Not one of the diesel trains doesn't drive its wheels with electric motors.

>>17308325
Even where there is OLE installed and pans are used most of the electricity is from fossil fuels in the US.

>>17308282
Yea Audi are clearly the problem.

Audi A3 - 200mg/km
BMW 320d - 425
BMW X5 - 175
Ford Focus - 650

Honda CRV - 450
Hyundai i30 - 375
Jaguar XE - 650
Kia Sportage - 575
Mazda 6 - 300
Mercedes A180 - 1020

Toyota Avensis - 300
Vauxhall Insignia - 750
Vauxhall Mokka - 400
VW Golf - 175

didnt harley davidson do some shit where they turned the fuel ratio so down it barely ran and got through the tests and then just turned it back up at the dealership?

its good for long distance but yuropoors gas themselves by driving them in the city

>>17308398
thats because Audi got caught unlike everyone else.

>>17308292
>it's more efficient so it's cleaner
Diesel emits a fuck load of soot and sulfur. Even "ultra-low sulfur content" still has sulfur. There's other stuff too, like NOx (or you need to deal with an EGR and super restrictive catalytic converters).

>>17308332
Yes, it got outlawed because no one wants to pay $20 a gallon. So it wasn't outlawed it's just stupid expensive and dirty to run. Idiot.

>>17308292
HCCI will kill diesels in anything other than trucks.

everywhere else other than US diesel is cheaper than gasoline. you're a dumfuck

Damn dirty fucking cheaters. Is Nissan the only legit car company left?

>Audi supplies the engines to basically the whole VAG lineup
>this somehow surprises someone

What next? Skoda emission scandal? Seat?

>MUH EVIL CHEATERS AND THEIR EMISSIONS
>meanwhile American car "enthusiasts" pride themselves in removing their cat converters or
rolling coal
>meanwhile the American president denies man-affected climate change

The POTUS also doesn't believe in exercise. Humans are born with a limited amount of energy that gets used up throughout your life. Exercise would diminish your "life energy" faster :^)

>>17308292
no, diesel is dirtier than gasoline

it emits less carbon dioxide but that is literally the leat important pollutant cars emit

>easiest to sequester
>no immediate health effects on surrounding life
>can be reprocessed into more fuel
>global warming really, really isn't that bad

yes please give me lung cancer i don't want penguins to have to evolve to live in a warmer climate
