Opel/Vauxhall ecoFlex Zafira MPV - 139 g/km CO2

Using a new-to-range 1.7-litre advanced diesel engine emitting combined emissions of just 139g/km, Vauxhall’s latest addition to the Zafira line-up is also the first ecoFLEX model in the range.

This ultra-low emissions figure also means that it’s one of the greenest and most fuel efficient seven-seat compact MPVs on the market.GM Europe has added a low emissions ecoFlex model to its compact Zafira MPV lineup that will allow buyers in many countries, including the UK, to pay lower registration fees.

The new engine produces 110 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque. That’s enough to move the Mazda5-sized Zafira to 60 mph in 12.6 seconds while getting 44.4 mpg (U.S.) combined on the EU test cycle. The carbon dioxide emissions are rated at 139 g/km. That’s a mileage bump from the 39.2 mpg (U.). rating for the existing 1.9-liter diesel. The seven-passenger Zafira gets taller gear ratios and lower rolling resistance tires to further help mileage.
