(NC)- Starting this fall, all diesel fuel sold in Canada must have a lower (less harmful) sulphur count of 15 parts per million to comply with stringent new standards. Extremely popular in Europe for their fuel efficiency, today's diesel vehicles are cleaner, quieter and offer comparable performance, comfort and luxury to gasoline vehicles.

Currently, just over three per cent of Canadian vehicles are diesels; however, that number is likely to increase now that the federal government has brought in the strict guidelines regarding sulphur content.

By reducing the sulphur content in diesel fuel, modern electronically controlled diesel engines can operate efficiently while meeting stringent emissions requirements.

Learn to buy, drive and maintain your vehicle in ways that will conserve energy, preserve the environment, protect your health and save money.

Visit Natural Resources Canada's website at vehicles.gc.ca or call 1-800-387-2000 to learn about the EnerGuide Label for Vehicles, the Fuel Consumption Guide and for other tips and tools to encourage fuel efficiency.
