Highest thermodynamic efficiency Lowest fuel consumption Lowest emissions of Green House Gases (CO2 emissions) No evaporative emission problems Better emissions at low engine temperature and in cold
ambient
Benzene emissions are far lower Better Stability of emissions over a distance More robust, hence lesser maintenance

Factors other than engine technology influencing emission & fuel economy
Periodic phasing out of older vehicles Infrastructure development > Improved roads / express highways / ring roads etc > Removal / reduction of traffic congestions inside city > Synchronization of traffic signals to have least stoppages at signals Fuel quality improvement

Summary
Indian emission regulations are tightest amongst emerging nations. Diesel engines are becoming more popular worldwide because of high fuel efficiency (reduced green house gas emissions) & increased performance with new technologies. All future diesel engines will have 4valve/cylinder, centralized injectors having fully electronic fuel injection control like common rail or unit injectors. Diesel engines are becoming more & more cleaner with Euro-IV (BS IV) technologies. Infrastructure required for availability of urea to introduce SCR technology. Phasing out of older vehicles, infrastructure development & Fuel quality improvements will also play important role in clean environment and improvement in fuel economy.
