Read the articles as a whole. The Nissan represents old technology whilst the Isuzu and BMW the new.

The BMW stats are impressive with a top speed of 148mph and a fuel consumption of 37.6mpg. Here in the US today, Mercedes-Benz E320 CDi I6 gets 27/35mpg and the Jeep Liberty CDi I4 25/30mpg. The Jeep uses the Mercedes 2.8L common rail turbo diesel inline four.

Yes, the Nissan's 21/24mpg is unimpressive but wait until they deliver a new technology Diesel.

One only has to look at what Nissan achieved with it's first V8 Endurance gas engine and what Mercedes has achieved with it's Common Rail Diesel and I for one am excited.

If only Nissan and the American buying public could get as excited.
