Volkswagen Diesel

It has been 114 years since Rudolph Diesel applied for a patent for his new improved engine. It was hoped to replace the gasoline engine but as we can all see that this has not happened.

The gasoline engine having just been invented in 1876 was still considered inefficient in fuel consumption and power. An evaluation of each engine's performance tells a story that is difficult to reconcile with the way things have shaken out in the beginning of the 21st Century.

The invention of the Diesel offered the world a far more efficient and effective fuel based engine.

It actually provides more horsepower per gallon or liter than a gasoline. This is why diesel engines power our large earth moving equipment, trucks, marine engines, low mileage cars and now aircraft.

A Volkswagen diesel makes more sense to me and is a better deal than a hybrid. I get 45mpg with my Jetta diesel and I have talked to other owners with the same or better results. Volkswagen diesel engines are known for their longevity and low operating cost. Hybrids on the other hand have very high replacement cost, besides that the pickup is no where nears as good when you need to punch it to merge into traffic. I recently took my Volkswagen diesel on a cross country trip over 4000 miles in 12 day span and couldn't of been happier with the ride and comfort. I'm not saying not to buy a hybrid, What I am saying is give the new clean green Volkswagen diesel a chance before buying a new car.
