there are alot of interesting diesels coming to the market in the next few years. BMW will be bringing a few models over, from what I can tell it will be a X5 and a 5-series (but recent rumors say a 3-series). Not sure what engine they'd be bringing, but their 6 cylinder diesel engines are very powerful and still turn out strong fuel economy.

another big improvement will be the availability of diesel engines for 1/2 ton domestic trucks. up until now, you've had to go for a "heavy duty" 3/4 ton or 1 ton truck to get a diesel, but being able to get it in a 150/1500 version will be very good.
