New ecoFLEX Insignia Sports Tourer – 139g/km CO2
Taking the Insignia Sports Tourer below the 140g/km CO2 band, the new ecoFLEX offers significant reductions in running costs, without sacrificing performance or practicality.
- Combined CO2 figure of just 139g/km
- ecoFLEX Sports Tourer drops four BIK tax bands to 18 per cent for company car drivers, compared with the regular CDTi Sports Tourer
- 12.3 per cent improvement in combined fuel consumption (53.7mpg vs 47.1 for the regular model) provides a driving range of up to 826 miles
- 160hp, 2.0-litre CDTi diesel seen elsewhere in the range is retained
- Top speed of 134mph
- 0-60mph in just 9.3 seconds Enhanced efficiency is achieved by a host of aerodynamic changes:-
- Modified front air inlets feature
- Two under-body spoilers which direct air over the rear axle, reducing drag and lift
- Upper front grille has been closed
- Ride height reduced by 3mm at the front and 14mm at the rear
- Specially developed low-resistance tyres and aero fins fitted to the rear screen
The ecoFLEX Sports Tourer’s practicality endures including a 540-litre luggage area (rear seats up) that matches the best in class, and is complemented by 40:60 split rear seats incorporating a ski-hatch, which fold to liberate a maximum capacity of 1530-litres.
ecoFLEX Sports Tourer prices start at £21,515 for the generously equipped Exclusiv model, and extend through S and SE trims to the Elite Nav at £27,750.
