With such a focus on alternative propulsion for cars, it’s easy for forget that every day, millions of other vehicles are used around the world.

Imagine the horror. There you are, driving your electric car through the Lincoln Tunnel to Manhattan from New Jersey.

The 2011 BMW 335d is quite a machine. With gasoline-rivalling power and performance and gasoline-shaming economy, it seems to offer the best of both worlds.
