But is unleaded/diesel better for the environment than electricity? Lot of environmental spin-offs today.

This...carcinogenic particulate matter is the main difference...especially with the onset of low sulfur diesel and NOx mitigation systems.

diesel does have sulfur (it´s the devil´s fuel, LOL), nevertheless, comparatively meets or exceeds all environmental requirements.

Murrikans just want cars to break down earlier, no?
