Paris Motor Show 2008, scheduled to be held in October, is going to impress you with the dazzling beauties to be on display. Now, Fiat has announced its plans of unveiling its PUR-O2 range at the show, comprising of three models - new 500, Bravo and Croma. Bringing across its most fuel efficient and lowest CO2 emitters, the Italian automobile manufacturer has revealed that the new 500 will have a 10-percent improved city mileage. However, the attempt to get official fuel consumption figures failed.
Fiat, though, did reveal the emissions scores of the models to be launched under PUR-O2 Range. While the new 500 and Bravo will have low emissions of 115 g/km, Croma promises to release no more than 140 g/km of CO2. The range has also been equipped with a stop/start system. Then, there are Eco Packs that include green tyres, low-viscosity fluids, aerodynamic packages and gearboxes with modified ratios. With high-tech content, low fuel consumption and low CO2 emission levels, PUR-O2 Range is surely going to be a big hit.
With Fiat 500 Lounge as the base, the new 500 PUR-O2 boasts of a 1.2 petrol engine. Its Stop/Start system will provide significant fuel saving in case of traffic jams as well as traffic lights. Fiat Bravo PUR-O2 versions will come with 1.6 Multijet Engine, promising to deliver power outputs of 90 bhp and 105 bhp. As for new Croma PUR-O2, it will have a 1.9 Multijet engine, giving out 120 bhp. With its new eco-friendly PUR-O2 Range, Fiat surely looks keen on winning the title of Europe's lowest CO2 emitting automaker.
