ENVIRONMENT
Aiming to deliver the best environmental efficiency was a major concern from the outset for the 3008, especially as this is a crossover vehicle.
The architecture, design and dimensions put the drag coefficient (Cx) of 3008 at 0.296. The efficiency of this air penetration index and the resulting SCx (0.760), despite a frontal area (S) of 2.56 m2 because of the height and width of the car, reflect the wind tunnel work done on the body, with the resulting lower fuel consumption and therefore lower CO2 emissions.
Diesel particle emission filter
The Particle filter (FAP) combines HDi technology and an efficient pollution control system. This self-cleaning system treats the gases from the diesel combustion in the engine. It reduces particulate emissions from diesel engines to the limit of what is measurable and intensifies the green credentials of diesel engines.
EURO 5
For the 1.6L VTi 16V. 120 bhp 5-speed Manual, 2.0l HDi 16V. 163 bhp FAP (particle filter) 6-speed Automatic (available during the year), 2.0l HDi 16V. 150 bhp FAP (particle filter) 6-speed Manual engines, the software is specifically engineered to ensure compliance with the Euro 5 emission standard.
130g Engine
3008 boasts particularly low fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Fuel consumption for 3008's 1.6 l HDI FAP (particle filter) 80 kW (110 bhp) BMP6 in combined cycle is a mere 4.9 l/100 km with only 130 g/km of CO2.
Fuel Economy
The very low rolling-resistance tyres that can be fitted on 3008 in both 16" and 17" size reduce its fuel consumption.
By reducing the rolling resistance by some 20%, these tyres require less power and therefore enhance fuel economy. Our challenge was to achieve this level of efficiency by improving the grip while offering the best mileage life on the market
