"Quality"? Sorry, diesel engines as a whole don't have "quality", any more than gasoline engines do or electrics. Individual engines do, brands often do, and specific lines of engines very often do have quality. But there have been some really lousy diesels over the years, as well as some excellent ones.

Torque and fuel economy are two things that diesels generally have a lot of, very true.
