They had a piece about diesels on MotorWeek. Only mfr selling diesel powered cars in the US is VW. They only mentioned Jetta but I believe Golf and new Beetle are TDI powered as well. VW will likely offer diesel Passat and Toureag in the US soon.
Nothing from BMW and Audi eventhough they have new diesel engines now on sale in Europe that are very appealing.
MBz is set to reintro their E-class with a diesel in the US.
It was cool watching the BMW driver do a smoky brake burnout in a BMW 745d. Built a TV commercial around that scene and people will pay attention to diesels.
There was no mention of other automakers. Piece was solely focused on German mfr's.
