That increase is because the diesel engine can use seventeen to one
compression ratio. Making the initial costs and maintenance double that of a low compression gasoline engine. A factor of ten in a road tractor engines.

Cummins sells spark ignition versions of most of its diesels for natural and producer gas use. The price isn't lower, it's higher. Mercedes Benz, VW and everyone else outside the US builds diesel and gas car engines on the same basic platform. The diesel is about fifteen percent higher build cost because of the fuel system. The added materials for strength add about two dollars. |
