respect for the environment in mind
foritsentireservicelife:duringitspro
duction, usage and at the end of its
service life.
Manufacture
Your vehicle has been manufactured at
a factory which complies with a policy
to reduce the environmental impact on
the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and energy consumption, visual
andnoisepollution,atmosphericemis
sions and waste water; sorting and
reusing waste).
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to
emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2)
while in use, and therefore to consume
less fuel (e.g. 160.9 g/mile (100 g/km),
equivalent to 67.25 mpg (4.2 l/100 km)
for a petrol vehicle or 225.3 g/mile
(140 g/km), equivalent to 53.29 mpg
(5.3 l/100 km) for a Diesel vehicle).
Our vehicles are also equipped with an
emission control system including a
catalytic converter, an oxygen sensor
and an active carbon filter (the latter
preventsvapourfromthefueltankbe
ing released into the open air), etc.
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
