Cheers guys I was just making sure as I'm looking at getting one pretty soon i didnt want to be duped into getting a petrol variant only to see the diesel come out a year or 2 later.
I know it would be more environmentally friendly but the fuel consumption isn't that high anyway. And it's probably not thatl for towing a boat either?
Better fuel consumption the Honda 2.2 litre turbo diesel which also offers great torque with Jazz like economy on a fairly heavy car thats a sweet trade off plus i always prefer to use pulp at the pump diesel is usually about the same price
Personally I haven't had very good impressions of diesel engines. They're a bit too noisy for my liking but the fuel economy would definitely make a difference.
I was put off buying the Prado/Hilux because of the noise and the petrol versions would bump up the consumption to about 14L/100km+ compared with less than 10L/100km for the diesel engines.
i was speaking to a guy at honda aust that was test driving a diesel euro for a few weeks. i think he said he was getting something ridiculous like 1300km out of a tank (could be wrong, cant remember)

Do you guys notice that diesel is much cheaper than ULP?
When ULP was at $1.39, the diesel was still at $1.24. That was in VIC
:O i was surprised cause usually diesel is more exp than ULP.
