Gasoline could match diesel efficiency by 2025

摘要

Gasoline engine efficiency will be similar to that of diesel in 10 years' time, according to Jaguar Land Rover's engineering chief. Dr Wolfgang Ziebart believes that by 2025 gasoline will catch up with diesel, but will require significant financial investment to reach this point, He doesn't expect there to be many more efficiency gains to be found from diesels, and feels that prices for the two technologies will not be that different in future. "The potential for improved efficiency in gasoline engines is higher than it is in diesels, as diesels are at their limit already," said Ziebart.
