Audi Offering Up Diesel Option in Which 5 Models?

The word diesel has become synonymous with cool. Audi knows that diesel fuel is no different because its modern components are not the dirty and unsavory mix of the past. Modern diesel fuel burns much cleaner, costs less and offers up improved mileage. So if you are an Audi fan and a diesel fuel fan, you will have the best of both worlds very soon! The Audi A6, A7, A8, Q5 and Q7 will all be available with the TDI diesel option! Audi diesel cars are coming, but will the change of gears be accepted by the masses?

The next-gen Q7 TDI is already on the market as a 2013 model, and the other four siblings shall follow suit in early 2013 and 2014. Diesels are acoustic wonders that have fallen victim to previous stereotypes. Audi is an advocate of salvaging what remains of the diesel reputation and transforming it into an all-out frenzy. The diesel fuel of today is quite different from its predecessor–it is cleaner and easier on the wallet, facts which should make it more palatable over time.

The 5 Audi models getting diesel options will pack a TDI V6 with 240 horses and 406 pound-feet of torque. Aside from all the power and improved gas mileage, it will still be a stretch to get Americans to embrace diesel in larger numbers. With brands like Audi introducing options coupled with energy education, it could just be a matter of time before standard fuel has a bit more competition.
