This article compares diesel and gasoline as fuel choices for commercial fleets, explaining how each affects cost, performance, maintenance, and long-term fleet strategy. Diesel engines offer higher torque, better fuel efficiency, and greater durability, making them ideal for heavy loads and long-haul routes—but they cost more upfront, require more complex maintenance, and burn a pricier fuel. Gasoline engines are cheaper to buy and repair, accelerate faster, and work well for lighter city routes with frequent stops. Diesel’s compression-ignition design delivers strong, consistent power and better MPG, while gasoline’s spark-ignition system offers simplicity and lower short-term operating costs. The article stresses that fuel type impacts more than pump prices—it shapes towing capacity, en
