I have a 5-speed Beetle TDI and I get 45-49 mpg so yes, they get much better mileage. Diesel is a little more per gallon but you get much more out of a gallon than gas.

Anyone that reckons a TDI motor is slower off the mark than a petrol powered equivalent, hasn’t driven a modern diesel.

The torque figures on modern common rail turbo diesels is immense.
