    It’s actually possible to make diesel cars much more environmentally friendly. Why don’t they give subsidies for that?

      Maybe they can be, but nobody trusts diesel manufacturers after diesel-gate.

      Because you’re forgetting or ignoring that burning diesel adds greenhouse gases, and you don’t seem to know what you mean by “environmentally friendly”.
