It's worth to note the 1.6L i-DTEC has a little more torque than the 2.4L K24 from the U.S.-spec Honda CR-V.

That's nice too. But considering the chances to get a newer Diesel such as the 1.6HDi, it would be a good way to meet fuel-efficiency and power, being able to legally delete EGR, DPF and all that emissions controls which were not mandated when the AX was made
