Why no Bmw diesels in Hong Kong?
I'm wondering, the 335d now being available in the U.S market is getting rave reviews for it's performance and especially the torque. But why are diesel still not available in Hong Kong? I heard the goverment recently relaxed the emission standard for diesel, yet are still too stringent for bmw. I doubt it is for environmental reasons. I suspect it is because diesel has less gas and first registration tax and hence the government does not want to lose the revenue from the petrol cars. What a bunch of bureaucrats! So instead of having the chance to try more fuel-efficient car that can emit less C02, we are stuck the petrol cars which no doubt makes the government treasurers happy, at the expense of the environment!
