Mercedes ditching diesels in North America
Here is a blurb about this. Is this meaning that Sprinters will be made with gasoline engines, or pulled out of the market completely?

FWIW, my BIL has the 6 cyl gasser Sprinter and it's a nice van. Nice price, too.
the passenger car emission stds for diesel are tougher than those for light trucks. So.... I can see MB dropping out of car diesels, they and others just don't sell that many. But keep selling LT diesels which they sell lots of in the sprinter etc.
