With the backlash against diesel, can we expect to see more petrol engine cars?
With the upcoming tax changes and the potential backlash against diesel, can we expect to see more petrol engine cars? I would love to see a Ford Kuga with a 2.0-litre 240PS EcoBoost engine.

I think a 2.0 EcoBoost Kuga is a distinct likelihood, especially now that JLR doesn't need these engines for its Range Rover Evoque and Jaguar XE any more.
