I wouldn't be so sure about it. BTW nowadays that direct injection became more widespread on spark-ignition engines, NOx and even particulate matter turned into a matter of concern on those too. Just to remind, nowadays Volkswagen is resorting to particulate filters even in some vehicles fitted with the 2.0 TSI/TFSI engine.
I wasn't sure, looked it up and altered my post.
