The Rise & Fall Of Diesel

On this journey we take you from Diesel's first engine, created by Rudolf Diesel, to the inventor's mysterious disappearance a few years later. We fast forward to the first passenger car powered by diesel in the 30's and see how it developed up to the 90's. Finally, we look at the last 10 or so years, understanding what has factored into the fall of diesel and where we stand today.
