U.S. Diesel Car Registrations Increase Clean diesel car registrations increased by 24.3 percent in the U.S. from 2010 through 2012 following similar trends of double-digit diesel car sale increases throughout the country, according to new data compiled for the Diesel Technology Forum. The national registration information was compiled by R.L. Polk and Company and includes data for all types of passenger vehicles – cars, SUVs, pickup trucks and vans – in all 50 states and the District of Columbia from January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2012. “This new data of total national vehicle registrations coincides with what we’ve been seeing in the monthly auto sales – clean diesel and hybrid cars are showing consistent and impressive growth patterns in the U.S.,” said Allen Schaeffer, the Executive Director of the Diesel Technology Forum. “This consistent growth in clean diesel registrations in the last three years is particularly noteworthy since it has occurred during an economic recession, the availability of an extremely large number of fuel efficient vehicles, which was topped off by some of the highest diesel fuel prices in U.S. history. Even in the face of these significant challenges, diesel buyers are seeing the big picture and long-term value by investing in record numbers of clean diesel cars and SUVs.” Diesel car and SUV registrations increased from 640,779 in 2010 to 796,794 at the end of 2012 – a 24.34 percent increase. During this same period, hybrid car and SUV registrations increased from 1,714,966 to 2,290,903 – a 33.58 percent increase. In contrast, the total car and SUV registrations in the U.S. increased by just 2.75 percent during the same period. |

yea!!! now will those newer diesel work with biodiesel? do they use DPF or urea to help clean a non existant problem.. the problem used to be sulphur emmisons..but no more DPF aren't as biodiesel friendly because of how they operate. urea is more more friendly since extra fuel isn't dumped.. think of fuel dumped...burned but not make power..not moving forward..THANKS EPA! I'll get off my soapbox for now -dkenny ps the 06 likes biodiesel.. |

I Can't wait to see the pricing on the new Ram with the mini Diesel in it. I am going to bet that because its a work vehicle that the diesel engine will be available in lower trim levels kinda like getting the Hemi in an Express model or something, either way I very well might trade my truck and ...... My libby in on one of those but we will see lol |
