GM stawia na diesle w USA:
GM to offer diesels in range of U.S. lineup

General Motors Corp ., the largest U.S. automaker, plans to introduce a range
of diesel-powered vehicles in the United States, Vice Chairman Bob Lutz
said. "We're doing a bunch of them," Lutz said in a video conference posted
Thursday on GM's FastLane blog. He said Detroit-based GM will offer cars,
sport utility vehicles and crossover SUVs with diesel engines, which are now
available only on some large vans, heavy-duty pickups and medium-duty trucks.
Selling more vehicles with diesel engines would help GM court buyers upset by
rising gasoline prices and meet possible increases in U.S. fuel-economy
rules. Engines that burn diesel generally are more fuel-efficient than
gasoline models. Six-cylinder diesel engines would be offered on cars, light
trucks and crossover SUVs, and eight-cylinder, 4.5-liter engines on SUVs,
Lutz said. He didn't provide specifics.
