In today's world, many drivers are looking for ways to save, and that includes browsing through used cars for sale that offer the best possible fuel efficiency. A lot of these vehicles may feature diesel engines instead of ones fueled by gasoline, as the alternative power source provides a money-saving, eco-friendly option that many prospective buyers will find attractive. However, not as many drivers have gotten the chance to test out these cars.
Recently, Honeywell Turbo Technologies conducted a survey to see how much experience American drivers had with these vehicles. Results showed that 70 percent of motorists have never driven a diesel-powered car. In addition, as many as 73 percent of Millennials, or those drivers under the age of 35, had not gotten behind the vehicle of one of these vehicles. Those numbers are surprising, especially considering the fact that more than half of adults knew that diesel engines could produce more power and offer better fuel efficiency than traditional gasoline engines.
"Turbocharged diesel engines have an opportunity to make an impact with today's younger car buyers who understand and even prioritize the fuel economy advantages of the technology, but have not yet been able to drive one," said Terrence Hahn, Honeywell's president and CEO. "Turbodiesels and downsized turbocharged gasoline engines provide both automakers and consumers a no-compromise solution of greater fuel economy and performance with the added benefit of being more environmentally friendly."
