Starting from 1.33, available with Stop & Start and its performance has decreased slightly to 99 horsepower (from 101) and the 128 Nm of torque (from 132), but the benefit in CO2 emissions and consumption is significant, with the former being limited to 125 g/km (from 139) and the second to fall on 5,4 lt/100 km (from 6,0). In his case 1.6 Valvematic, although performance remained the same (132 PS and 160 Nm) both average consumption and CO2 emissions fell to 5,9 lt/100 km (from 6,5) and the 138 g/km (from 152) respectively.
