Vauxhall Combo Manuel Du Propriétaire

Directive 80/1268/EEC (last changed by 

1999/100/EC) has applied for the 

measurement of fuel consumption since 

1996.

The directive is oriented to actual driving 

practices: Urban driving is rated at 

approx.

1

/

3 

and extra-urban driving with 

approx. 

2

/

3

 (urban and extra-urban 

consumption). Cold starts and acceleration 

phases are also taken into consideration. 
The specification of CO

2

 emission is also a 

constituent of the directive.

The figures given must not be taken as a 

guarantee for the actual fuel consumption 

of a particular vehicle. 
All values stem from the EU base model 

with standard equipment.
The calculation of fuel consumption as 

specified by directive 1999/100/EC takes 

account of the vehicle’s kerbweight, 

ascertained in accordance with the said 

regulation. Optional extras may result in 

slightly higher fuel consumption and CO

2

 

emission levels than those quoted. 
To convert l/100 km into mpg, divide 282 

by number of litres/100 km.
