No TDIs in VWs current line up?



I heard that in the last couple years America has had to change their diesel so european engines could be used. VW used to sell the v10 turbo diesel in canada and stopped selling it here because of the type of diesel that is sold, it was doing a number on their motors. Now that its been changed to european standards vw is bringing the motor back with a lot of better dieselmotors from europe.
