Hybrids aren’t the only solution to sky-high fuel prices for car
buyers. Diesels are making a comeback in America after many years
of limited availability. Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen currently
offer diesel cars, and diesels from BMW and Honda are expected to
reach these shores within two years.
Also, interest in biodiesel, made from waste vegetable oil sourced
primarily from fast-food restaurants, has soared recently. It is
possible to run a diesel vehicle on almost 50 per cent biodiesel
with minimal modifications to the car, thereby vastly reducing fuel
costs.
