Mondeo CO2 bands - question

fricatus · 2008-06-19 13:50:17

I've just been looking on the Mondeo CO2 emissions area of Ford's site and I've found something I find very strange. I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation, but I can't see how a 2.3 or 2.5 petrol engine (band B) can be in a lower emissions band than a 1.6 (band E). Am I missing something?

Fair play lads, more eagle-eyed than me...

A grand in road tax though... :eek: - the Greenies really don't want us driving big petrols, do they?
