– The price drops on used diesels have tempted some car buyers, and at the same time dealers are no longer taking in new diesel cars, says an analyst at Bilbasen to Avisen Danmark.

In addition, there is great uncertainty associated with diesel cars due to the opportunities that all Danish municipalities have just been given to introduce zero emission zones. Zones that keep all fossil-fuel cars out of certain roads, streets and alleys.
