Why Do Euro Diesels Get Such Better MPG's?
I have driven a BMW Diesel in Germany and it seems the MPG's were somewhat higher than the US diesels are capable of. Does anyone know exactly why this is? Is it restrictive exhaust emissions? If so, can the US diesels be matched to the Euro ones to get like MPG's? Hypothetically, if one were to remove the CATS where no emmisions testing is required, could the X5 be coded to work with no CATS and achieve better MPG's?
