Issues In Higher Mileage
European Model:
1: Drop In Power When The Car Is Accelerated:
Causes :
High pressure fuel pump
Use of gasoline instead of diesel
Poor quality diesel
2: Emission Problems
Causes :
• European cars do not follow the emission regulations of the US
• Unavailability Of high pressure fuel injection
• Absence of after treatment system
Europe does not have the
emission regulations of the US.
High pressure fuel injection &
after treatment systems have to
be included in the European
cars to meet the regulations.
In Brief :
3: High Cost
To meet the emission regulation
an extra equipment is needed to
add which will add extra cost for
the Americans.
To use the European cars the
Americans need to pay more, as
diesel is more costly than
gasoline in US.
Electric Cars are also fairly
expensive when compared to
American-made Automobiles.
High Taxation on vehicle
Production
High Taxation On vehicle Production
In Brief :
Manufacturer
European Government charging high taxation
on the manufacturers as a result the manufacturers
charging high costs on the vehicles for which
consumers feel reluctant to pay more.
4: It does not meet American Crash Test standard
It is a form of destructive
testing usually performed
to ensure safe design
standards.
Volkswagen XL is serving incredible efficiency
i.e. the capacity of 300 miles on a gallon of
gasoline but it can not be sold in US as thiskind of efficiency is against American Crash Test Standards .
Preventive measures:
European Car manufacturers do understand the problem
with diesel fuel therefore green diesel cars are being
developed.
American regulations are now insisting on even lower
emissions with smaller carbon footprints.
Bio diesel, a carbon neutral fuel is now available at more
fuel stations.
High mileage European car manufacturers are now
trying to lower the emission level to fit to US standard.
