Ev just linked to a new Green blog, which had two diesel-related tidbits on its front page when I skimmed it yesterday:
Honda to sell Diesels in US: "By 2009, Honda plans on selling diesels in the U.S. along with it’s hybrids as part of it’s core environmental strategy. The first diesel will most likely be the CR-V sport utility vehicle."

Chrysler to offer Diesel SUV next year: "Look for a diesel version of the Jeep Grand Cherokee early next year at a Chrysler dealer near you. The new Jeep will be powered by a turbo diesel engine supplied by Mercedes-Benz. The 3.0-liter diesel engine will be up to 30% more fuel efficient then the current gasoline models (that equates to about 5 mpg better)."
Nice!
