That seems like an expensive way to sell the 1.6/2.0 A3/A4 TDIs, which are still a pretty niche market. It may echo an overall larger away from gasoline to diesal. But, I think it's more about selling all Audis: "Vorsprung durch Technik" (Advantage or Advancement through Technology)

Not really. Remember that diesel has a bigger market in Europe than North America. And a lot of that TDI technology do get pass down to gasoline engines as well.
