Fiat’s environmental qualifications have been confirmed again this year, registering for a second year running the lowest CO2 emissions of the ten automobile brands in Europe. The figures are for 2008 sales at an average of 133.7 g/km (in 2007 figures were 137.3 g/km).

The figures come from JATO, world leader in research and consultancy in the automotive field. Fiat is at the top of the ranking and is followed by Peugeot (138.1 g/km), Citroën (142.4 g/km), Renault (142.7 g/km), Toyota (144.9 g/km), Ford (147.8 g/km), Opel/Vauxhall (151.1 g/km), Volkswagen (158.8 g/km), BMW (160.6 g/km) and Mercedes (185.0 g/km).

Fiat Group also precedes PSA, Renault, Toyota and Hyundai-Kia in the manufacturers group category. New initiatives and projects such as the Multiair, PUR-O2 range and LPG models should only further improve these results in the future.
