So diesels need the complicated urea injection just to meet average T2B5 requirements? The Prius is still many times cleaner, especially with NOx and PM10 A coworker picked up a MB R320 CDI last year and was not very impressed with the fuel economy. I've noticed that MB Canada was claiming at one time around 40 MPG highway, now they claim 34 highway Still, a nice station wagon. He ordered his with the optional Airmatic DC air suspension, it soaks up the Winnipeg potholes and frost heaves just fine
Yep. The current E320 BlueTec doesn't have AdBlue . It will this year when the rest of the BlueTec line arrives. Honda's diesel (i-DTEC) won't need urea to meet T2B5 emission standards.
