My last trip to US a couple of years prior, diesel seemed like a rarity in passenger cars.
I'm a big fan and would take an oil burner 100 times over a hybrid!
You made a good move with E70 35d its a nice truck, I have driven the Cayenne diesel and I can safely say the X IS the nicer drive!  |
I agree with you. I would also choose a diesel over a hybrid as you can see with our 35d. So far we are loving it. Gas prices are creeping up pretty high here, which makes me even happier with my choice. Plus the torque is nice!
Do you guys get the same 2.0 liter gas engine in the X1 that is in the new 3 series as well? That engine has received much praise over here. I think the X1 is only 200+/- pounds heavier than the 3 series, so I figured the X1 with the 2.0 gas engine would be a good driver.
