VW will be introducing its new clean diesel auto towards the end of 2008. I hope it is very successful, and yes, I seem to remember reading somewhere that 80% of all current audi autos being produced are diesel.
If VW remain on schedule, the VW clean diesel auto to be introduced in the U.S. will beat to market all the others diesel manufactures jumping on the U.S. diesel bandwagon, including Honda.
