The versatile Qubo mini-MPV is the latest
in Fiat’s range to benefit from eco:Drive, the in-car system that
can save fuel and reduce emissions.
eco:Drive, which allows drivers to
download a record of their driving style from car to computer with a USB
memory stick, and learn how to reduce their impact on the environment,
is already available on other Fiat cars, including 500, 500C, Grande
Punto and Bravo.
Launched by Fiat in 2008, the
free-of-charge, award-winning system – available on
www.fiat.co.uk/ecoDrive –
helps motorists understand the impact of their driving in terms of fuel
consumption and CO2 emissions and offers suggestions on how
to improve efficiency further by changing driving habits.
“We want our cars to be fun, but they
must also be practical and environmentally-friendly,” says Andrew
Humberstone, managing director, Fiat Group Automobiles UK. “Offering
eco:Drive on Qubo will help to spread the benefits of this
technology, helping drivers to improve their driving efficiency, saving
fuel and reducing their impact on the environment.”
Four versions of the Qubo are available
with prices ranging from £9,755 to £12,350. There are two engines, the
119 g/km CO2 1.3-litre MultiJet turbodiesel and a perky
1.4-litre petrol, plus Active and Dynamic trim levels that incorporate a
generous amount of standard-fit equipment.
