They are aiming for 2010-2012

I presume its designing the urea injection system and the logistics of refilling? Like BluTec did?

Honda claims they will offer diesels that won't need a urea catalyst to meet US emission standards - Volvo SHOULD be able to do the same since they claim to be an environmental leader and will be LATE to the market.

I think that will require redesign of the catalyst. Thought I heard somewhere that honda is going to use their nanoparticle technology to get this done. Could be mistaken though.
