Diesel should be included because most will achieve better mpg over a conventional four-cylinder engine with the excepton being some of those low technology Mercedes supplied Jeep diesels.
Reality wise diesel cars are too expensive and would take years to recover the additional cost of the car/truck for the average consumer. Additonally, diesel fuel last I looked was 70-cents more per gallon compared with the base lead free gas.
When diesels become more common the prices for diesel fuel will continue to rise because profit at the expensive of consumers is the American way unfortunately.
