No, it is not better it is just another type fuel.
Diesel
first of all its engine. ADVANTAGES - petrol is cheaper than diesel so cheaper to run. petrol cars generally cost less than diesel (a few 1000). petrol engines are usually faster than diesel off the line and have a higher top speed than a diesel car with the same sized engine. DISADVANTAGES - petrol is less economical than diesel and also diesel cars are much better for over taking than petrol as it has more torque (pulling power)
2.4 petrol is better than 2.2 TD in my opinion.. I just replaced my 2.3TD with a petrol.. 2.4 petrol is better than 2.2 TD in my opinion.. I just replaced my 2.2TD with a petrol..
Each engine is rated better for different things. A petrol engine generally has a higher horsepower than a diesel engine, so acceleration and speed is often better on a petrol engine. Diesel engines tend to rate better with torque, so they are better at pulling heavy loads, which is why diesel engines are used in trucks and locomotives.
Yes, diesel engines traditionally get better fuel mileage than a gasoline engine.
Diesel engines normally get better fuel economy than gasoline engines.
In the United States diesel is not cheaper than petrol or gasoline, it is higher.
No, diesel is heavier.
It's more a question of "different", than "better". Petrol engines can have better power-to-weight ratios, while diesels are a little more efficient.
diesel. Diesel engines tend to have better efficiency especially at less than full load. Gasoline/Petrol and LPG engines tend to have better power weight ratios.
Petrol is and bit more vicous and that diesel is a lot darker than petrol. Petrol burns quicker when set alight, however diesel burns more brightly!
Depends on the car, if a car has petrol and diesel version than yes
