Diesel is the new gas… or so what European makers want you to believe. But with gas prices soaring in recent months, fuel sipping diesels have become a better solution.

Let’s take look and see the top 3 diesel vehicles that make sense to buy:

Number 1:

Mercedes GL
Cost of vehicle increase when compared with a gasoline counterpart: <$1,770>
This vehicle is the only one in our list where the vehicle cost is cheaper when choosing a diesel.
Gas MPG: 15
Diesel MPG: 19
So, not only is it cheaper but will deliver a 26% better fuel economy. a true WIN-WIN.

Number2:

Audi A3
Cost of vehicle increase when compared with a gasoline counterpart: $1,500 or 10%
Gas MPG: 24
Diesel MPG: 34
MPG Gain: 41% (two years of driving will offset initial cost increase)
