Subaru Turbo Diesel?

How do you guys feel about this news, I really wish they ditched the diesel hybrid feature and kept it gas boosted.

No, this is just an April Fools joke. However, I heard the next gen will be rocket powered on 91 pump gas. Looking forward to that!

I think the hybrid turbo diesel is definitely the way of the future. Especially when all cars only come with automatic transmissions and drive themselves.
