It depends how much it saves in company car tax payments!

Active Driveline should have a slight impact on CO2. The big impact on CO2 will be with the new ingenium engine, which now also focuses on the reduction of NOX.

I read in the Driving Section of the Sunday Times yesterday that BMW and Audi are very worried about the Ingenium Engines as between them they have no equivalent sized engines that can get similarly low CO2 and are as smooth and quiet as the Ingenium 2.0ltr. Both makers rely on very old designs of 2.0ltr TD's that have been modified as the EU regs have changed and there is a big question mark as to how they achieved their figures, Ingenium has been designed from scratch to be highly efficient, quiet, smooth and have low emissions.

I'm not too keen on the idea of adblue being used, I assume it lasts until service intervals, in that case it isn't too much of a concern.
The coaches/buses at work get topped up every night but I think they could get two tanks of fuel to one adblue. I think not 100% certain

When I ordered the MY2016 a couple of weeks ago, the dealer didn't have the new model brochure, so he photo copied some LR to dealer brief sheets. My scanner is on the blink, so I can't load the actual document, but it states the DEF (adblue) may have to be refilled between service. It says it all depends on driving style. There will be a total of 4 reminders shown on the driver's screen. Below is my interpretation in English. As the info is written in French, I cannot say for sure what the warning's will exactly say in English on UK versions. Action required in bracket's.
1. Refill DEF - ( you'll have to fill 2x 1.9 ltr within 2400km)
2. Add DEF - ( 1500km before starting impossible)
3. Starting impossible in 800km - (message will stay on screen and countdown distance)
4. Starting impossible - ( Fill 2x 1.9 ltr to start)
I think we have the EU to thank for this!
