The advantages of diesel engines over their gas-powered counterparts are well documented. Compared to gas engines, diesels are more durable, are more fuel efficient, and, generally, provide more pulling power due to their higher torque output. While some of the smallest diesel engines don’t produce massive amounts of torque, and in some cases gasoline engines outperform diesels, the engines with the most torque are usually diesel powered. Some of the reasons diesel engines typically produce more torque than gas engines
