Volvo Cars said on Tuesday that it will end production of any remaining diesel models by early 2024 as it heads towards becoming an all-electric carmaker.
“Burns slower”? Are you talking about the engine rpm or cetane value? Neither really has anything to do with cost per unit.
Generally diesels are more efficient and reliable to their gas counterparts and the better low end torque makes them better for hauling loads. Also better at engine breaking when combined with a manual transmission, so very suitable for mountainous European countries.

I’m no scientist. A full tank tends to go farther on a diesel model than a gasoline one 🤷
There’s more energy per unit in diesel compared to gas and compression ignition burns more efficiently then spark ignition.
