No!.. they have expertize alright... the problem is politics... the problem is always politics...
(at least in europe they also sell other very good small passenger cars on diesel (yaris i think)... don't know all the lines of toyota... but think diesel options is present in most of them) |
My apology for that
, but the wiki page you linked showed that not until the second generation Avensis did they achieve 170hp in a
2.2L diesel.
2L? Never made it. About the average performance with Honda and Nissan, but I'm afraid not the earliest.
