India’s love for diesel cars is well known. Many car manufacturers are selling more diesel cars than petrol. However pollution experts are crying hoarse that diesel cars emit more toxic gases than petrol cars. This is not true. Diesel engines have undergone a lot of development in the last six years.
Surprising but true. Diesel engines emit less carbon-dioxide than petrol cars. Carbon dioxide is responsible for greenhouse gases which causes global warming. The other advantage of diesel cars is that they emit 75 to 85 percent less toxic fumes than their predecessors in the 90’s. The engines deliver 10 per cent more energy efficiency per liter than petrol engines.
Indians have been unconsciously doing the right thing by purchasing diesel cars and I am one of them. I put in a lot of research into this, because of a debate I had with a friend and I have proved my point.
