Governments worldwide are passing increasingly rigid fuel economy standards that automakers have to satisfy. Consumers also do not mind more fuel efficient automobiles, which help save on gas. As a result, more car makers are making diesel vehicles that more people are buying, as sales of diesel automobiles are increasing. Are you currently trying to purchase or sell a new or used truck? If this describes you, schedule a test drive at cars in Spokane!
Most purchase gas vehicles
It is generally a bit more costly to engineer and manufacture a diesel-powered car, which means you have to pay more to get one of them. The motor will return better gas mileage than a gas car will. Governments are really pushing for better fuel efficiency, which is why car makers are making more diesel-powered automobiles.
Regardless of the added cost, more individuals are getting them. According to AutoGuide, data from hybridcars.com and Baum and Associates indicates that sales of diesel automobiles specifically clean diesels that produce far fewer emissions than older designs, have been growing lately. Diesel car sales have improved for 22 of the past 23 months. For all but two of those months, the boost was in the double-digits. Increases of 30 percent or more, according to MarketWatch, were recorded in 12.
Seeing sales increase over 27 percent
Overall, according to AutoGuide, sales of diesel cars are estimated to be up by 27.5 percent since the start of the year. Hybrid car sales, however, posted much larger gains, with hybrid sales having increased by 63.5 percent.

Pike Research estimates that eventually, clean diesels will become more popular over time with gas prices growing. Pike believes that 12.4 percent of all vehicles sold in the United States by 2018 will be diesels. That is not even close to European sales where there is a 50 percent share for diesels. MarketWatch points out that even though it seems like diesels and hybrids are becoming much more popular, they are still only about 3 percent of the market in the States.
European carmakers were definitely the very best businesses for diesel model sales. About 37.1 percent and 21 percent, the Audi Q7 and Volkswagen Passat were the most popular diesel vehicles for the first half of the year.
Experiencing more diesels soon
A number of auto makers are coming out with brand new diesels, including at least one entry from a domestic car manufacturer as GM, according to AutoGuide, is going to release a Chevrolet Cruze diesel in 2013. Jeep is also working on a Grand Cherokee diesel, Ford has a forthcoming Connect diesel van and Cadillac, in its bid to take on the Europeans, will be releasing an ATS diesel sedan. Volkswagen is going to release a diesel Beetle and Mercedes-Benz is going to bring a diesel S-Class stateside.
According to Car and Driver, BMW is going to be selling a diesel 3-series soon called the 320d. The 335d model is not going into production.
