9/11/2007 AIRDREAM

To highlight its commitment to the environment and demonstrate its technological expertise in this area, Citroën has developed the AIRDREAM signature for the cleanest vehicles in its range.

AIRDREAM reflects Citroën's efforts to contribute actively to air quality and a clean environment by cutting the pollutant emissions from its vehicles.

To qualify for the AIRDREAM signature, vehicles must meet the three criteria below:

1 - CO2 emissions = 130g for vehicles running on fossil fuels
- 158 g for diesel vehicles equipped with the DPFS and biodiesel B30 compatible (equal to 130g as part of a well-to-wheel approach)
- 200 g for vehicles running on superethanol E85 (equal to 120 g as part of a well-to-wheel approach)

Or a Stop & Start vehicle
(No CO2 emissions and no noise when stationary)

Or a CNG vehicle
(20% fewer CO2 emissions than a petrol engine)

2 - Be manufactured in a plant that is ISO 14001 certified

3 - Be designed to be 95% recoverable (recycling and energy recovery) by weight at end-of-life

The list of Citroën vehicles meeting these criteria is appended.

As part of its policy to maintain and continuously improve standards of customer service, Citroën will expand the scope of this signature in the future to include any new technologies and new developments able to bring further reductions in pollutant emissions.
