Introduction
New Duratec Flexifuel
As part of our continued commitment to alternative fuels, the environmentally-friendly 1.8-litre Duratec Flexifuel engine is available, which runs on E85 bioethanol or petrol. Bioethanol offers a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions compared to petrol, without any loss in performance. Bioethanol fuel is plant-based, so it emits about as much CO2 as the plants absorbed while they were growing, therefore reducing the impact on the natural balance in our atmosphere.
Petrol and diesel options
You can also select from four petrol options: the smooth and responsive 1.6-litre, 1.8-litre or 2.0-litre Duratec petrol engines, all available with a 5-speed manual transmission. Or, for power combined with a 4-speed automatic transmission, select the 2.0-litre Duratec petrol engine.
Diesel fans can choose the state-of-the-art 2.0-litre Duratorq TDCi diesel engine, available with a 6-speed manual transmission. Or select from two 1.6-litre TDCi Duratorq diesels, one at 90 PS and one at 110 PS; the 110 PS variant is available with diesel particulate filter (DPF).
