Reading the news this morning, I see an argument for diesel over gasoline in the event global warming becomes a serious issue in car design. The author is reporting on his new VW bug. Fuel economy is not a big attraction, either. With the base 2-liter, 115-horsepower, 4-cylinder engine, the Beetle consumes gasoline at the rate of 22 city and 27 highway miles per gallon, about the same as a Buick LeSabre. A year's worth of filling the 14.5-gallon tank will cost you $782. If it's fuel economy you want, you'll have to wait for the Turbo Direct Injection diesel-powered version that will have an EPA rating of 48 miles per gallon on the highway and a range of 700 miles. nando.net Charles
