Every one of which I've read is heavier than an equivalent gas engine, especially
with all the accessories installed. Since some of the new diesel designs are
2-stroke, and most gas engines are 4-stroke, though, some of the newer ones may
actually come in lighter than the equivalent gasoline engine (if they ever make it to
production).
