The proposal is that vehicles in Band A and B, emitting 120g/km or less of CO2 and which meet the Euro 4 standard for air quality would be eligible for a 100% discount for London’s Congestion Charging Zone. 23 Citroen models happily meet this criteria.
Included in the 23 Citroën models is the family sized C4, thanks to its intelligent new EGS (Electronic Gearbox System) and ultra clean 1.6 HDi engine. Funky superminis such as the 109g/km C1, the C2 and C3, all with excellent Euro NCAP occupant safety ratings, would also be exempt.
Whilst Congestion Charging is limited to the Capital at present, the charge is in the consultation stage across many large UK cities. Others considering the surcharge include Birmingham, Cambridge, Cardiff, Manchester and Norwich with the latter already targeting a 2012 launch date so it seems Citroen are one step ahead of the game once more.
