I'm sure this is with the most efficient engine, and also this is the EU cycle, but still sounds impressive, though I'm not sure where the competition stands.
Projected to deliver fuel economy of over 75mpg* (less than 4 litres/100km) on EU combined cycle

I would imagine it's the new 2.0L, though I don't know if they're offering engines below that for other markets. Either way the little conversion calculator I used gave me 62mpg. That is really good, especially if that is the combined rating. I doubt we'll see the diesel in the US, but you never know.

I would imagine it'd have to be a diesel version also with those figures.
Its such a shame that these never seem to make it to the US, why is that?
There seems to be a call for them from a few members here or there.....perhaps once petrol prices start to rise somewhat?

Kind of off topic, but I have wondered, if they just left the 3.0 naturally aspirated how much power would it make? Surely it would be a better match than the 2.0L borrowed from Ford.

I'm dreaming of a manual transmission in the four-cylinder cars

Any car in this section of the market must sell well in Europe with its very high fuel prices, so must be economical. This means manual gearboxes are virtually guaranteed to be available, and most cars will be sold with the smaller engines. Of course there will be a few "power" cars made to get attention, but the money is in the smaller engine cars. Diesels will have to pass a much more stringent emissions test soon, so it is my hope the petrols will once again become volume sellers.

I think you misunderstood me, I'm not talking about the upcoming Ingenuim engines which happen to be 2.0L like the base engine in the XF and Evoque. I was just wondering if they had a naturally aspirated version of their 3.0L how it would compare to the current 2.0 borrows from Ford.
