Who said cost can be a stop to anyone? Mercedes is preparing a huge near-future lineup of diesel, hybrids, Diesotto and, later, fuel cell cars.
Even if GM said the cost for producing this kind of cars will be huge, Mercedes has another point of view: "I hear some competitors speculating that whatever it costs to meet the targets, that will be transferred to the customer. But since this is a legal requirement in order to sell the cars, the willingness of the customer to come up with the full bill will be limited. I consider the realistic definition for the pricetag is that the [customer's] investment has a payback as a fuel saving during the first three or four years of the vehicle's life."

LOL (3 months later) it has a diesotto engine. It is a Mercedes engine that runs on gasoline, but sometimes functions like a diesel (on gasoline!). No other car in world has this set up.
