I usually don't trust those reviews. At least for me and my relatives, Diesels have always ended up as the most cost-effective option when available (unfortunately in Brazil there are some restrictions limiting the offering of light-duty Diesels, based either on cargo capacity, passenger accomodations, or traction). They're still usually cheaper than a comparable hybrid anyways...
