Clean Diesel Vehicles Take You Farther For Less
November 18th, 2010
If you’re one of the hundreds of Nebraska commuters driving back and forth between Lincoln and Omaha every day, you probably spend a lot of money at the gas station each week. A clean diesel vehicle could help save a lot.
Clean diesel vehicles are ideal for people who regularly drive long distances or haul heavy loads, making these the perfect vehicles for Nebraska commuters, farmers and construction workers. Clean diesel vehicles get 20-30 percent better fuel efficiency than gas powered vehicles, meaning you can spend more time on the road between fill-ups. In some of these vehicles, you can travel up to 600 miles on a single tank of fuel.
Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz are currently leading the way with clean diesel technology available in the United States. Volkswagen offers TDI Clean Diesel models of the VW Jetta, VW Golf and VW Touareg. Mercedes-Benz offers their Bluetec Diesel models of the ML 350 sport utility, R350 crossover, GL350 and E350. All these vehicles offer comfort and performance with improved fuel economy.
In addition to helping your wallet, clean diesel vehicles also help the environment. Clean diesel vehicles run on ultra low sulfur diesel, which has 97 percent less sulfur than traditional diesel. Sulfur is toxic and a major cause of acid rain. These vehicles also produce up to 25 percent less CO2 emissions than gasoline-powered vehicles. Because of this, clean diesel vehicles are eligible for up to $3,400 in tax credits as part of the government’s efforts to encourage consumers to explore alternative fuel options.
Not only do these vehicles have excellent emissions ratings, they also have excellent performance ratings. Clean diesel engines provide up to 50 percent better torque than gasoline engines so you can easily haul your heaviest loads.
