This document discusses some known issues with higher mileage European cars, including potential drops in power when accelerating, emission problems from not meeting US standards, and higher costs. Specifically, it notes that European cars may have issues with high pressure fuel pumps or using gasoline instead of diesel that can cause loss of power. They also do not include the high pressure fuel injection systems or after treatment systems needed to meet stricter US emission regulations. Finally, meeting these emission standards and using more expensive diesel in the US increases the overall costs for American consumers compared to domestic vehicles.

4. Craftsmanship
Higher
Mileage

5. Beside these benefits the cars do have
some issues. Of course not like a full
Breakdown of the car in heavy traffic,
but there are some imperfections which
a person should think before buying…

6. Issues In Higher Mileage
European Model:

7. 1: Drop In Power When The
Car Is Accelerated:

8. Causes :
High pressure fuel pump
Use of gasoline instead of diesel
Poor quality diesel

9. 2: Emission Problems

10. Causes :
• European cars do not follow the
emission regulations of the US
• Unavailability Of high pressure
fuel injection
• Absence of after treatment system

11. 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 :

12. 3: High Cost

13. 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.

14. Electric Cars are also fairly
expensive when compared to
American-made Automobiles.
High Taxation on vehicle
Production

15. In Brief :
High Taxation On vehicle Production

16. Manufacturer

17. 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.

18. 4: It does not meet American
Crash Test standard
It is a form of destructive
testing usually performed
to ensure safe design
standards.

19. 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 this
kind of efficiency is against American Crash Test
Standards .

20. Preventive measures:

21.  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.

22.  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.
