The green Panda - the Fiat Panda Eco  

1 comments

Unlike most green vehicles, the Fiat Panda Eco features a petrol engine, yet still gets official CO2 emissions of under 120g/km. That means it drops down a tax band in the UK, from Band C to Band B, saving £85 in annual car tax.

You can pick from the 54bhp 1.1 litre engine in the Active Eco and a 60bhp 1.2 litre engine in the Dynamic Eco. The higher spec model also has remote central locking, colour-coded bumpers (which do improve the looks of any Panda) and a CD/MP3 player.

Both engine versions claim fuel economy and CO2 figures of 56.5mpg and 119g/km, obtained by using low-viscosity engine oil and fitting low-resistance tyres - so theoretically then, something that could be achieved by any Panda owner at oil change and tyre replacement times?

The good news is that you'd soon be in profit, as the modifications are only £100 over the standard prices for Pandas - the Fiat Panda Active Eco is £7105, and the Fiat Panda Dynamic Eco is £7705.

What next?
