DIESEL BABY

I just posted this article about the new-for-2012 Mercedes S350 Bluetec over on my other blog, Gas 2.0. Usually that would be that, since what I post there rarely makes it over here (and vice-versa).

All the same, this diesel Benz (above) fills me with outrageous desires.

Despite the latest advancements in automotive hybrid and flex-fuel technologies, motorcycles and scooters remain one of the most efficient ways for energy-conscious commuters to get around town. Unfortunately, there haven’t been any real “alt fuel” options open to motorcyclists. As such, despite the incredible efficiency of some 2-wheelers (my own Honda Ruckus gets over 100 mpg), motorcycles remain petroleum-dependent gas addicts. They may be sippers - rather than guzzlers - but still, that will be cold comfort when the oil runs out and we're all scrambling for vegetable oil and kerosene to power our generators.

Enter Europe’s EVA, manufacturers of the Track T800CDI diesel motorcycle - a bike so full of exotic features and new technology that I’m almost at a loss for words … almost.
