There is no diesel witch hunt - they just aren't getting special treatment anymore.

For years diesels were allowed to pollute more. With Euro 6 emissions gasoline and diesel cars are almost treated the same. Diesels are allowed a little more NOx and gas cars are allowed a little more CO. PM and PN are the same so DI gas cars get to have particulate filters too.
