All Peugeot HDi diesel engines can be run on a maximum 30% blend of Biofuel - vegetable oil methylester/diesel.
Peugeot sold the highest number of low CO2 vehicles in 2005*
Since 1998 Peugeot has engineered all its HDi diesel engines to run on biofuels and showcased this in 2004 with the launch of the one make Peugeot RC Cup Motorsport championship.
The RC Cup championship uses racing cars based on the Peugeot RC diamond concept car presented at the 2002 Geneva Motor Show. The cars are all powered by a HDi diesel engine running on biofuel (Diester) and incorporating a diesel particulate filter system (DPFS). In the RC Cup the Diester fuel has a mixture of 50% Biofuel and 50% diesel.
This flexibility in the design of the Peugeot HDi diesel engine means that today, all current Peugeot diesel vehicles can be run on a blend of 30% vegetable oil methylester/diesel biofuel, without any modification.
Therefore with the current level of available biofuel at the UK pump being only 5%, Peugeot again demonstrates its forward thinking in respect to environmental issues.
With the highest number of low CO2 emission (less than 113g/km) cars sold in the UK in 2005, the fitment of diesel particulate filter systems across the range of Peugeot diesel vehicles and now the ability to run on a 30% blend of biofuel, Peugeot can clearly say it is doing its bit to protect the environment.
