Coming Soon To All 50 States: The 60 mpg VW Jetta Diesel

Quote:
Volkswagen has at last finished working on its 60 mpg Jetta BlueTDI diesel, and not only does it look great, but it's coming to America later this year.

Compared to $3.50 per gallon for regular gas? Do the math: 3.50 / 4.20 = x mpg / 55 mpg*, with x being the gas mileage you'd have to get for using gas to be as cheap as using diesel.

/* a more realistic assessment of the new TDI's highway mileage.
