The Car Wizard Finds 4 Cars on Autotrader That Are Unashamedly Diesel | Autotrader

Throughout U.S. automotive history, there have been many attempts to bring diesel vehicles to the market, and I'm not talking about 4x4 tow rigs, but passenger cars.
Although these types of cars are becoming more and more popular these days, it's been a long hard fight to get this far in America. The oil crisis of the 1970s moved American automakers to start the big push for diesel engines by touting their wonderful fuel economy and respectable power. Those first attempts by Cadillac, Oldsmobile and Volkswagen did get great mileage compared to their prior gas-guzzling engines, but they were rushed into production and their quality suffered.
These engines left owners with frequent breakdowns and enduring smelly exhaust fumes. Most independent repair shops didn't even have diesel repair experience, which resulted in engine swaps instead of proper diagnoses, often converting diesel-equipped cars back to gas engines. This greatly tarnished the reputation of diesel cars in the eyes of the American public, and many people swore off diesels with comments like "never again!" and "not a chance!"
Ask anyone today about buying a diesel car, and you will likely hear "aren't they smelly and loud?" or "don't they break down a lot?" Obviously people are still scarred by the image of diesels' yesteryear reputation -- even though that was over 40 years ago! However, there are many diesel cars that are just fantastic, some old and some newer. These cars still offer great fuel economy without all the headaches. Let's talk about four Autotrader finds that are shooting stars when it comes to fuel-efficient diesel cars in America.
