General Motors plan a global diesel offensive
Separately, the trade publication also reported that General Motors is planning a global diesel offensive starting in 2008 that would include launching new diesel engines in the United States, where the technology has found few fans compared to Europe.
"We are developing right now two highly modern diesel motors that won't just fulfil the Euro-5 emission standards, but the more stringent Bin-5 regulations in the USA," GM manager told Automobilwoche.
It plans to introduce a 2.9 liter V6 and a 4.5 liter V8 that will gradually be used in almost all sport utility vehicles, pick-ups and large sedans in all GM brands and all markets.
Should the biggest U.S.-based carmaker roll out models with diesel engines on a large scale in the United States, then German carmakers that have specialized in the more fuel-efficient power train technology may be able to make greater inroads into the local market.
Pour vu que le diesel a faible teneur en soufre ne soit pas reporter plusieurs fois encore... :roll:
