Honda diesel marketing

New ad for the Honda Accord TDI diesel engine-based car.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the ad, if used in North America, might be a bit too fruity for the public?

Many states in US have too high of an emission standard that VW cannot sell their TDI models. Since Honda has a very high presence here (in CA, almost every 1 out of 3 car on the road is a Honda, another 1 out of 3 being Toyota, and the rest are VW, BMW, MB, etc), I doubt they will waste their effort.

Wow, I'm glad I'll never have to see that again. It's complete fluff

, I want stats when I see a car add. It's almost as bad as the "GO GO CANADA GO" ad Toyota is running. Their ads are always meaningless.
