According to nextgreencar.com the following would be annual emissions based on 5k miles:
535d
- 2.6 tonnes of co2
- 5.78 Kg (yes kilograms) of NOx+PMs
M5
- 4.36 tonnes of co2
- 3.42 Kg of NOx+PMs
In reality, the v10 M5 is a much higher pollutant than the 535d would ever be.
Sure, a 20 yr old French diesel will pump out some nasty shit but a euro5 or euro6 diesel will actually produce similar results to the equivalent petrol engine (the v10 is not equivalent).
