What is wrong with a large, fast, and still economic car?
Look 20 years back in time. Then there were no small cars with diesel engines. Diesel engines were only found in large heavy cars with a need for loads of power/torque. Now that the diesel engines are more quiet, it is time to put them into luxury sedans as well.
