Natural gas is a fuel for the future, Citroën is convinced of this and believes in the development potential of vehicles running on natural gas. In fact, natural gas reduces CO20 emissions by around 2% compared to petrol and emits neither sulfur oxides nor lead

To help you adopt a driving style that is both ecological and economical, Febiac has put together a list of 10 simple tips.
1) Avoid high regimes: remember to change gears in time
2) Monitor your tachometer: you can easily change speed from 2500 rpm with a petrol or lpg engine and even 2000 rpm with a diesel
3) Give gas: You can accelerate by depressing the pedal almost to the floor. You do not save fuel by accelerating gradually!
4) Anticipate: Maintain a sufficient distance from the vehicle in front, so that you do not have to brake and accelerate constantly.
5) Release the pedal: when you have to slow down or stop, you can also release the accelerator pedal in time (engine brake) and let the car go without disengaging
6) Silence your engine: cut it for short stops (level crossing, boarding of crossings ...)
7) Use the help functions: trust your lap account to change gears in time. Cruise control promotes smooth driving. Plan your route in advance, especially in the case of multiple trips, to avoid unnecessary miles.
Pamper your mount: only a well-maintained car guarantees safe and economical driving
9) Put the pressure: regularly check the pressure of your tires
10) Lose weight (WITHOUT S ... ???): remove the roof box, the bicycle rack and the luggage rack as soon as you no longer need them.
Some advice is very questionable: 3), 5) and 6) ...
