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.
