Although the pollutant emissions of a diesel engine are less than those of a gasoline one, it still emits carcinogens, nitrous oxides, and soot. To reduce emissions, diesel vehicles use filters that catch exhaust particles and other contaminants. Older models don’t even have the emission-control features that newer ones do.
