      Why the fuck doesn't Nissan sell this vehicle in the US (minus the right hand drive of course)?

        I must admit, I didn't read the article, but isn't this the same vehicle?

        Drive the 2026 Nissan Murano luxury mid-size SUV with a VC-Turbo engine, available AWD, spa-like interior with massaging seats and Google built-in tech.

          The diesel option is not available in the US.....I should have noted that was the distinction I was looking at.

              Oh. That makes sense. Diesel will never "catch on" here like it has in Europe. We don't have the refining facilities to switch away from a primarily gas economy. Also, having Europe use diesel (primarily) and the US use gas (primarily) helps us to "balance" supply more effectively, and keep prices down actually (by maximizing product values and demand for them).

              You have to produce a certain amount of gas and diesel from a barrel of oil. You can't produce all diesel (distillate), and you can't produce all gas, (though you have some discretion on minimizing one or the other depending on the composition of your refinery). We can (and do) send both products back and forth...

              I realize that's more than what you were looking for, but, that's the way it is, at least today.... Look at the Mercedes diesel options. I think they still make them. Haven't checked in a few years though.

                Benz has always made great diesels....I had a 300D for a few years and loved it. I have a VW diesel now and love the MPG....I have heard some very good things about the Nissan diesels and would love for them to bring them to the US.....just like I wish Toyota would bring their diesels to the US. The age of the soot belching diesels is gone and the new diesels offer amazing MPG.

                  I keep hearing that Mahindra is going to be bringing their diesel pickups into the US in 2010....I drove on in South America once and thought it was pretty nice.

                    One of the guys that I work for has a Jetta diesel. He likes it a lot, but is always on a "quest" for a service station on his route that carries diesel. It is tough to find sometimes.

                        Ty can't figure out why no diesel Passat. Jetta is a bit too small. Ty had a reg jetta and liked it..wanted to move up in size.

                        Ty's mom had a diesel caddy back in the 80s...Seville!! Good times keeping it plugged in.

                          That's not an issue up here...because of the number of diesel trucks it's everywhere.
