Gasoline Or Diesel? Which Is Better?

5/4/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
​Is there a superior type of fuel for your car? It is one of the earliest and most significant options for choosing a car. Do you go with gasoline or diesel? There is no one answer for this type of question. The only way to answer this is to look into your driving environment. What kind of driving will you need to do? What are you expecting from your car? If you can answer this, then choosing will be easier.
​Price Per Liter
The price for each has essentially reached the same price point in recent times. The difference between the two has been dwindling due to the various changes in taxes and subsidies for the fuel. So comparing the two, price per litre is now virtually the same.

Consumption
Now here is where the difference will first be seen. Of course each car will have different levels of consumption for fuel, but in general terms, diesel engine cars use roughly 15% less than gasoline engine cars. That is a striking difference between the two. So even if diesel and gasoline have approximately the same price, diesel cars will be needing less of it. So if you will be driving great distances, then you will feel more of this advantage. 

Maintenance, Purchase, and Resale
Diesel cars are generally more expensive than regular gasoline engine vehicles. Although it is possible to offset some of the difference. This will depend on how well you take advantage of the fuel consumption difference. Diesel engine cars also tend to be more expensive on the second-hand market and maintenance costs are typically higher as well. 

Environmental Responsibility
Fossil fuels, in general, are not a long-term solution as a fuel source. We know it is a finite resource and we will be looking more and more into alternative resources. 

Another environmental issue with fossil fuel engines is emission. Diesel has a reputation of being dirtier and more harmful to the air. Which may make it surprising to know that diesel engines have lower CO2 emissions. However, they do contain more harmful particles compared to gasoline engine cars. 

Driving Experience
Will you need additional torque? Do you need extra power especially on lower speed drives? If you don't mind a noisier engine, then diesel is your way to go. If you are a typical driver with mostly local or shorter trips than gasoline is a better option for you. 

Conclusion
There is no definitive answer on which is better for everyone. The key here is finding what best fits your requirement.

At Rick Case Insurance Agency, we do our best in making sure that our clients are well-protected with affordable and comprehensive policies. We make sure to go the extra mile to help you with your needs. To learn more about how we can help you, please contact our agency at (405) 722-5556 or Click Here to request a free quote.
