While the VW case centred on diesel engines and Nox emissions, the latest research from ICCT focuses on CO2 and includes both petrol and diesel variants.
Both technologies require more software than gasoline or diesel engines.
E- diesel is certainly not the first attempt at making carbon neutral fuel, and it will by no means be the last.
Audi just invented fuel made from CO2 and water , An Audi research facility in Dresden, Germany, has managed to create the first batches of diesel fuel with a net-zero carbon footprint - made from carbon dioxide (CO2), water and renewable energy sources such as wind or solar power.
