Very high emissions and very poor milage. 2-stroke diesel technology hit a dead end about 30 years ago, anything still around is a left-over remnant. The combination of low compression, inability to scavenge well, and reduced expansion capability doomed the concept. The only advantage is low weight, and once you get the huge supercharger in there to scavenge it will enough to produce decent power, that advantage is gone as well.
