Volvo Cars said on Tuesday that it will end production of any remaining diesel models by early 2024 as it heads towards becoming an all-electric carmaker.
weren’t those volvo diesels better in many ways? or have i got it backwards? yay for the fossil fuel industry in confusing me, so fuck you shell.
ahem, fuck you: BP.
does anyone even know the names of these shits in order to condemn them
there’s a lot of energy out there about diesel motors ya ya, and I have a CDL to drive all that crap, also my cat yells with enough decibels to rival a cement mixer, not impressed
The efficency of diesel engines gets lowered when using proper particulare filters, catalysts and NOx resorption with uric acid. So at best the CO2 benefits are marginal.

@sorebuttfromsitting @alphacyberranger diesels are horrible for air quality. The natural enemy of asthmatics everywhere.

Better in what ways? I think they are a bit more efficient, but emit more particulates.
I believe that they emit less CO2 compared to gasoline powered cars, but a lot more nitrates, which are carcinogenic.
and acidic and eutrophic nutrients…

yeah, that was my question.
