Vehicle emissions and performance

One of the winning proposal vehicles at the “Ultra Low Carbon Car Challenge” was born by collaboration between Ricardo UK, PSA Peugeot Citroen and QinetiQ. Completed in mid-2006, the “Efficient-C” project resulted in a production-feasible diesel full-hybrid vehicle based on the family car Citroen Berlingo. Without compromise to passenger comfort and options, the research car achieves only 99 g/km CO2 emissions based on the NEDC.
