You've obviously never driven a Passat or Jetta TDI or even been around them. They are completely silent and cleaner than gas motors.

No just a VW TDI wagon and it was fairly quiet.

I'm not even sure they sell those in the great commie state of California anymore.

They don't sell them anywhere in the US, unless you can find a used one. Obama destroyed the market with his bullshit lawsuit and VW packed up and went home. As I said, it was decided that electric cars were going to be the future. In order to make that happen, they had to kill the market for German turbo diesels. They were cheap, reliable, got fantastic mileage, were built by Germans, and were selling like hot cakes.
