Perhaps this is why the percentage of cars with a diesel engine in England is 40 percent, in France it reaches 70, and only here it does not exceed ten. Zealous French, Germans, and British have long figured that with the comparatively cheap diesel fuel, they save at least 20 percent of the cost of fuel. And in relation to our realities, it has already been calculated - installing a more expensive diesel engine on a popular UAZ-Hunter all-terrain vehicle pays for itself in 11 months.
In addition, diesel engines are more environmentally friendly than gasoline engines, and accordingly, the owner of the diesel engine pays less taxes.
Yes Yes. I understand. I can’t believe it. We are used to thinking that diesel is diesel fuel, it is a terrible stench and extremely harmful exhaust. This stereotype has been with us since Soviet times. You will be surprised to learn that leading Russian fuel producers have switched to Euro-5 standard. That in Euro-5 diesel fuel the sulfur content is reduced by 5 times! That at gas stations of TNCs and other companies, the transition to winter diesel fuel occurs automatically, in accordance with the recommended seasonality.
Speaking of the difference between summer and winter diesel. At gas stations of companies unknown to the world, this difference is often leveled with the help of inexpensive, but very mysterious additives. They are mysterious in the sense that they can do anything with your engine. But winter diesel is fuel, unlike summer, another fractional composition that cannot be obtained by adding additives. Fuel from well-known companies (and fuel at TNK stations, for example, goes through four stages of quality control - from sending it in a sealed tank to the test just before refueling a specific car) does not involve any tricks, but it allows you to overcome large costs compared to gasoline distances and refuel only where it is guaranteed to be safe.
