is a question we all ask before choosing a Car: Diesel or petrol? Will I pay more compensation to spend less? "I'm going to repay? and much more.
The trend of recent years is leaning towards diesel as approximately 70% of cars sold in Spain are diesel engine. Most people have the impression that you are going to be more profitable and will quickly recoup the price difference. This is true in some models, but other than the petrol option is the best if not done high mileage, especially now that diesel exceeded the € 1.15 / l and is above of gasoline for the first time in history. To see it clearer let's put 3 examples in which a diesel engine has been selected for each model and his own version with similar power gasoline (according to the manufacturer Autopista.es):
Opel Astra GTC 1.8 16v Sport - Opel Astra GTC 1.9 CDTi/150 Sport:
Price Difference: 2,900 €
Difference consumption: 1.5 l/100 km
miles to be profitable: 167,600 km
BMW Series 3 330 Xi - BMW 3 Series 335d :
Price Difference: 3,800 €
consumer Difference: 1 l/100 km
Miles to be profitable: 330,400 km
Honda Civic 1.8 i-VTEC Type S - Honda Civic 2.2 i-CDTi Type S :
Price Difference: 2,000 €
Difference consumption: 1.4 l/100 km
miles to be profitable: 124,200 km
As you see, you have to do many miles so that the investment is profitable, so the answer to depend on both diesel and gasoline mileage expected as the model of choice.
